6 blue have really enjoyed participating in Science Week. We focused on keeping healthy and investigated how someone could dance for 24 hours. They were given the topic of the heart and the circulatory system.

As part of the week, the children were asked to take part in a sponsored ‘Danceathon’. They were asked if they could kindly raise money for this, which the school will then share with a charity of the children’s choice. Whilst raising money and having a brilliant time, the children thought about the effect of exercise on our pulse rate.

Additionally, the children learnt about first aid, and how they can identify and help in different first aid scenarios. As well as understanding how our lifestyle can affect our heartrate and how our circulatory system works.
