Class 13 have been learning about the circulatory system and how the heart works to pump blood around the body. As part of their learning, they dissected a lamb’s heart, carefully examining the four different chambers and the blood vessels connected to it.

This hands-on experience helped them…

Class 14 have enjoyed dissecting hearts today and learning all about how the heart works and really enjoyed seeing the inside of the sheep heart we dissected.

Well done class 14.

This week in science we have been researching endangered animals.

We worked in pairs to find out about their habitats, what changes have made them endangered and what we can do to stop them becoming extinct.

We then used our oracy skills to present the information to the rest of the class,…
