Today we conducted our investigation into air resistance. We did this by dropping our spinners from the top of the stairs. We measured the time each spinner took to land. Three groups changed the weight of their spinners, and two groups changed the size. Three groups investigating how mass affects air resistance and two investigating how size affects air resistance.

Outside we looked at the effects of wind direction and what would happen if we were more sheltered from the wind.

Who we are

We look to provide a safe, secure, stimulating Christian environment in which all our children feel happy and valued as individuals, and where they can learn and play to the best of their abilities, and therefore reach their full potential.
