Year 5 - Science

15 June 2023 (by Daniel Campbell (Daniel Campbell))

Things have been going down in year 5 this week – we’ve been studying gravity in Science!

The class enjoyed getting the low-down about Isaac Newton and his theory which was famously prompted by a falling apple. The children also used Force Meters to compare different items from around the classroom and record their results in a table.
