PERILOUS POLES

To start off our next topic, Y6 visited Brig House Educational Centre.
We all had fun, especially on the Blind Snowstorm Challenge, The Polar Parachute and Shackleton's Trail activities. 
We were not put off by wet conditions- some children positively embraced the mud... quite literally! 
Y6 teachers give thanks to Mr Wills and Mr Smith especially for their early start and preparations to ensure our day was successful! Ken, Mrs Miles and Mrs Jacku all pitched in to ensure children had the most fun possible as they learned new polar facts. Keep scrolling for pictures.

PARALLEL CIRCUITS IN PRACTISE!

We finally managed to get our parallel circuits working so that each light bulb could be switched on and off separately! It was a lot of fun (and frustration) working out how we could operate each bulb individually. But we did it!
We also created series circuits with up to 7 bulbs at a time!
