YEAR 6 SCIENCE: Animals Including Humans

In our Science learning, we asked the question:

HOW DOES THE BODY GET NUTRITION FROM FOOD?

Exploring how nutrients pass through our digestive system to different parts of our body, Year 6 became the human body. They did this by replicating the job of the stomach, duodenum, the small intestines, the nutrients in the blood vessels and body parts.

Have a look at this in action:

Samba carnival with Vicky Oakley.

Year 6 had a wonderful time at Torquay Museum experiencing a hands on Ancient Egyptian workshop. They learnt about a variety of Egyptian

artefacts by playing Egyptian games, building their own pyramid, making scarab beetles, writing their names in hieroglyphics, dressing up and the highlight

of the morning: learning about the mummified boy of a young boy from around 600 BC.
