As part of British Science Week, today we celebrated with an action packed Science Day! This year’s national theme was “Curiosity: What’s your question?” which was introduced at an assembly on Wednesday afternoon. Each year group then started our special event with a Scientific question to investigate linked to this half term’s learning:

Year R  - Plants, Year 1 - Animals, Year 2 - Humans

We then all enjoyed our Science Federation Session where each of our infant classes worked with a junior class to complete a collaborative activity. Year R worked with Year 5 to explore “How do animals and humans communicate?” Our Year 1s worked with Year 4 children to explore “What’s the best design for a paper aeroplane?” while Year 2 went over to the Junior School to explore “What is an eco-system?” After lunch we all spent some time designing a poster around the theme of “Childhood of the Future” for a national poster competition, be sure to look out for details about our chosen winners in the next couple of weeks!

It was a super Science Day and we sincerely hope it has inspired some scientists of the future!
