Year 5 recently went on an exciting trip to Science Oxford, filled with hands-on learning and discovery. They started with pond dipping, collecting samples and classifying organisms into vertebrates and invertebrates. The Exploration Zone was a highlight, where they experimented and learned through play. During the woodland walk, pupils searched for minibeasts, applying their knowledge in a real-world setting.
Throughout the trip, pupils were outstanding, displaying excellent behaviour and enthusiasm. It was a fantastic opportunity for them to immerse themselves in the world of science. They returned with a deeper understanding of biological classification and a renewed enthusiasm for scientific discovery. They even had the opportunity to meet Professor Dame Angela Mclean, the Government Chief Scientific Adviser and Sharon Leverment, the CEO of the Association for Science and Discovery Centres (ASDC), who were touring the centre and observing part of the sessions.
