Investigating spinners

On Monday 7th of March, in science, we thought about how to carry out a fair test. We discussed the variables which we needed to keep the same and one we would change. Our investigation was, ‘Does the weight of the spinner effect the time it takes to drop?’ Here we are investigating!

On Friday 4th of March we celebrated Saint David’s day as well as our school’s Eisteddfod by making daffodils using a lovely but tricky paper folding technique. The final product was really affective.

A busy week! Wythnos brysur!

This week the children have been working on floor plans for their rescue centre. They agreed they would use a scale to draw their plans which would be annotated with dimensions and the area of the space. They also worked in groups to create a junk model of one of the enclosures from their rescue centre!

World Book Day!

The Size of Wales workshop - Maint Cymru!

Today Year 3 & 4 were visited by Elin from The Size of Wales to deliver a workshop about rainforests and climate change. We have been working on rainforests within our mantle so a lot of the information felt familiar to us. We learnt more about the issues with the ingredient ‘palm oil’ and how our day-to-day lives can impact of the tropical rainforests. 


Did you know that tropical rainforests that equal 9 times the size of Wales are cut down every year? We can make small changes to help with this, such as buying a Fairtrade product once a week, baking at home (who knew baking could save lives?) using sustainable ingredients etc. And if you see this symbol on the products, even better! Let us know if you find one, it is apparently quite elusive!
