Summer Science

Our topic theis term is Summer Science. We have been investigating how our heart rate changes when we do different forms of exercise. We measured our heart rate when we were resting, then again after doing different exercises.  We chose our own activities like running, hopping, press-ups, skipping and squats.  We used the results to create a graph on Microsoft Excel.  We also drew our own graphs.

PC Dean

We had a visit from PC Dean to talk about friend of foe? We worked in groups on scenarios that could or do happen. We discussed as a group what we would do and if the person in the scenario was a friend or foe. Some of the scenarios we were surprised at the outcome and it has made us more aware of people in the wider community.
Here are some photos of our day.

Glamorgan Sausages

Today we had a go at making Glamorgan Sausages. These are a Welsh vegetarian sausage made with leeks, cheese, breadcrumbs, parsley, egg and mustard. We chopped, grated and blitzed our ingredients and then shaped our sausages. We really enjoyed making them.
