Earlier this year, we got our hands wonderfully messy as we explored the creative world of clay! With curiosity and enthusiasm, we rolled, pinched, and shaped our clay into all sorts of imaginative forms – from abstract sculptures to recognisable figures, and flat plaques. We also experimented with combining and joining different pieces to make…

Recently, we have been working on “Forces” in science. First of all, we identified and explored various push and pull forces in addition to exploring gravity and how it constantly pulls objects towards the Earth. To investigate this in action, we dropped different objects and observed how they fell at the same rate regardless of…

Over the past few weeks, we took on an inspiring project focused on famous women in history. Each of us worked either individually, in pairs, or in small groups to research the life and legacy of one remarkable woman. With our work spanning a range of areas – from civil rights and science to politics…

Over the past few weeks, we have been actively engaging with key areas of the SPHE (Social, Personal and Health Education) curriculum. Focusing on the strand units Safety & Protection, Making Decisions, and Relating to Others, we took part in a wide variety of activities including discussion, role play, lots of drama, writing, and drawing…

Recently, we embarked on an exciting multi-topic project that combined elements of science, history and geography. Our focus was on three fascinating themes: the Winter Solstice, Day and Night, and the Discovery Space Shuttle. Working in groups, we conducted online research to gather accurate information, which we then summarised onto display sheets enhanced with illustrations…

Recently, we have been very busy exploring ‘Light’. We began our exploration by investigating how various materials allow light to pass through in different ways. This helped us understand the concepts of transparent, translucent, and opaque objects. This led to a better understanding of how shadows are formed as only opaque objects create clear shadows….

This morning, we had a really enjoyable time taking part in a drumming and percussion workshop! Led by the enthusiastic Lilia, we were fully engaged as we experimented with a range of percussion instruments to build exciting rhythmic patterns. Working together like a real band, we explored changes in volume and texture – growing louder…

This term, as part of the ESB Science Blast Project, we completed an exciting science investigation based on the question: “How can you measure the decibel level of different sounds, and does decibel level affect our perception of loudness?” To answer this fascinating question, we carried out in-depth research into the science of sound. We…
