Aspirations in Beesley Class, by Mrs Burgess

Date: 8th Oct 2024 @ 12:36pm

In 'Understand the World' we have been looking at and discussing many different occupations. The children were asked what occupation would they would like to have when they grow up? A few children in the class have been inspired by the recent visit from Lancashire Fire and Rescue. 

Cleaning coins, by Miss Palacio

Date: 7th Oct 2024 @ 3:28pm

The children in Mary class have been making enquries into which substance would be the most effective at cleaning a dirty coin. They made sure to carry out a fair test by keeping the amount of solution the same and testing for the same amount of time. They even tested each solution againt the pH scale to see the acidity of each substance. After their experiment they did an extra test, adding some bicarbonate of soda to each solution to see if that cleaned the coins any better. They liked when the soda reacted with some of the solutions and began to bubble and foam.

Firefighters at the ready in Beesley Class!, by Mrs Burgess

Date: 20th Sep 2024 @ 4:14pm

What an exciting morning in Beesley Class! When the children arrived at school this morning the children noticed the large red box. We opened the box and had a look inside. It was from Lancashire Fire and Rescue Service ahead of their visit on Wednesday 25th September. The children had lots of fun exploring what resources were in the box and are looking forward to using them before our visit. 

The children explored mark-making fires to place around in our outdoor area and have been role-playing taking on the role of being a firefighter to extinguish them. We are looking forward to our visit from Lancashire Fire and Rescue service on Wednesday.
