Year 6 Archive

We collected 10p coins in a bid to raise money for charity.  The whole school had a race to see which class had raised the most amount of money.  Some of the money raised will go towards helping Ukraine.

Year 6 have been learning about the heart.  We looked at the different parts and their functions.  To investigate this further, we dissected a lamb’s heart.

We then investigated how the heart pumps blood by creating a model.  We created a valve to show how blood is prevented from going the wrong way.

As part of our PE lesson, we looked at pulse rates and how they increase.  We discovered that our hearts beat faster with more intense activities.

KS2 had a Zoom session with a scientist.  We were able to ask her questions and she gave us some fascinating answers.

We also explored what blood is made up of and its function.  We represented this using different ingredients.

Leila was chosen by 3 different adults for her writing this week.  Well done!
