This week we have carried out several science experiments so that we could test the properties of different materials. We will use our findings to design a coat for Arctic Explorers!
We found it interesting that some of the materials seemed quite waterproof but absorbed a lot of water which made them heavy and not very practical for the Arctic weather. The thermal insulation experiment was interesting because we found it hard to ensure it was a completely fair test.
Here are some photos from our experiments.
A big thank you to all of you for helping us to raise a total amount of: £511.97 in aid of Willen Hospice.

Well done 5A for winning the attendance trophy last week! All our exercise and active breaks must be helping us to stay healthy!
Remember to bring in your water bottles every day so that you can take them out onto the playground with you and stay hydrated.
Well done everyone!
Thank you to all of our amazing children who have participated in well being week! We have seen so many children outside getting active and feel it has had a positive impact on well being. This is just the start! Well done Brooklands Farm!
On Wednesday, Brooklands Farm came third out of eighteen schools in the Silverstone 10K! It was a great event and we loved having supporters there to cheer us on. Miss Ritchie also got a medal for being the fastest female out of all the school teams! A massive well done to everyone that took part.
We are already excited about next year and would love it if we could get more parents, governors and staff involved as it is open to all of you! We will let you know more details nearer the time.
Recently, we had a visit from the DHL lorry company to understand how to stay safe around lorries. We found it really interesting even though it was pouring down with rain!
Last month we had the chance to go and visit the Health Centre whilst it was being built. We asked A LOT of questions and found out exactly how they built it! Here are some photos from the afternoon.
What a week it has been for Well Being Week! The sun has been shining and all of the year groups have been making the most of it by completing active breaks to improve well being. Children have been recording their well being and thinking about strategies to improve it. Please talk to your children about their well being and strategies at home.
Year 2 have had some fun this week with yoga and relay races at playtime.
