Today Year 6 linked through Skype to an organisation called shark angels. This is a group that is helping to educate people on the importance of helping to protect sharks. Jamie, from Shark Angels spoke to the children about some of the adaptations of sharks as well talking about their importance to the ecosystem and food chains of the oceans.
Children were given an opportunity to share some of their knowledge of sharks and find out a little more about the different varieties sharks and their eating habits. The children also learnt about how humans are destroying the shark populations and the reasons for this.

| Year 5 Science at Gregg's School |
Year 5 go to Gregg's School for Science Activities
A group of Year 5 children went to the Gregg's School for an afternoon of Science. When we arrived we were given our Science lab coats and from then on the imagination and wonder abounded. Children were curious and enthusiastic to ask questions and listen to each other's reasoning and thinking.
They worked co-operatively to investigate a variety of ideas and were frequently amazed with their findings. A fabulous afternoon which allowed them to question and apply their scientific understanding. Don't take my word for it look at the pictures below and read their comments.
