Mile- A- Day.

We have started a new fitness initiative where we try to walk, jog or run a mile each day.

"It's fun because we can walk and talk to friends or try and beat our high score, there's no pressure on reaching a target" - Chloe

 

"I like it because we are burning off energy outdoors with our friends"-Lily

science week

On Monday the teachers put up a new science quiz. The prizes were two space torches and two telescopes. There will be a raffle for all of the children to win.

On Thursday a student from Trinity came in to do science with us, we did some cool experiments.

 We made marshmallows shrink and expand with a syringe.

 We worked in pairs focusing on air pressure.

In our second experiment we looked at creating a vacuum and sucking water into it using a flame.

 

 When the candle went out the water rose up into the glass

It was fun watching it rise.
