The children in Year 3 planned an investigation to test the following questions: If your arm is the longest, does that mean you can throw the furthest?

This morning, the children became zoologists and designed their own prehistoric park. With a partner, they thought carefully about fictional animals, creating hybrid creatures of modern day and extinct animals. They noted down the physical features of each creature, discussed movement, diet, communication and social structure. Using a dice, they generated more information about their creature. Then they drew out

Year 3 have had a great day out at the Lunt Roman Fort. We enjoyed learning all about the fort and were able to handle replica artefacts. We also learnt about life as a Roman soldier and took part in a number of role play activities to cement this knowledge.
Year 3 were fortunate enough to have Dr Watson visit us this morning to lead a science workshop which focused on forces. She showed us a variety of experiments involving friction, contact and non contact forces and used a range of equipment. The children also enjoyed being scientists and joining in or conducting their own experiments. They particularly enjoyed using
