Science Week 2026

We celebrated British Science Week by embracing the exciting theme of Curiosity.  All of our classes explored the fascinating concept of sinking and floating, asking thoughtful questions and making predictions as they investigated which objects would stay afloat and which would sink. The children showed great enthusiasm as they tested their ideas and shared their discoveries. Each class also had the freedom to carry out additional experiments, including the impressive “impossible egg crush”, which amazed everyone and sparked even more curiosity about the science behind it.  All of the children took part in an ‘Eco-Fish Workshop’, which was kindly funded by the PTA. The workshop began with an engaging and interactive presentation, where our children explored the issue of marine litter and learned about the impact of single-use plastics, as well as more sustainable alternatives. Following this, each child had the opportunity to decorate a cork fish using colourful recycled materials to create scales, helping to raise awareness of plastic pollution in our oceans. This creative activity highlighted how small changes can make a big difference, and reinforced the important message that we can all play a part in supporting a healthy and thriving ocean ecosystem.
