Term 6

Pfizer Trip

Year 6 had the pleasure and privilege of being invited to the Sandwich Pfizer Science Park jamboree of scientific discovery. We laughed and learnt with Dr Dallo who travelled through space with a fun and exciting emphasis on forces all around us. Following this, in small groups we engaged in practical activities in various subjects ranging from the science of surfactant bubbles to forensics. We either raced caterpillars subjected to various temperatures (not all of the pupils wanted to warm them up in their hands!). It was a fantastic experience, loved by all.

Charles Darwin

Back in the classsroom, we have been researching the life of Charles Darwin and investigating some of his ideas around the origin of species. We even replicated finches beaks eating various sizes of seeds. We have also been investigating the formation of fossils. In such a busy term, we are glad to be travelling through such an interesting curriculum.
