P6/1 had a brilliant day helping fundraise for Children in Need. We took part in some sports activities in the gym hall and also bought some toys and books from the Bring and Buy Sale. The best part was getting to wear our pyjamas all day at school!

We have been learning about size, scale and motion in Space.

First we compared the sizes of the planets using fruit. Then we learned about the distance the planets are away from the sun which affects the planets temperature and features. We wrote a mnemonic to remember the order of the planets.

Next we learned about the phases of the moon and compared gravity. We did a moon jump experiment to see how far we would jump on the moon.

We used a Sun, Earth and Moon model to investigate why we have day and night aswell as the four seasons.
