This week is National Science week, to celebrate in Michelle’s class we used recyclable materials to create our own animals. The pupils used glue, scissors and paint. 

We have also been carrying out science experiments, our favourite was the cola and mentos mints, which created a volcanic eruption.

The pupils have been watching the ducks and chicks grow and have been taking care to be gentle when holding  them.
