Event - Year 3 go to ThinkTank

14 December 2012

This term, Year 3 had an exciting trip to the Science Museum, ThinkTank. The whole year group travelled by coach to Millennium Point and everybody had an excellent day.

During the day, children visited the different exhibitions in the Science Museum, visiting kid city, the wild life area, exploring robots and have a fantastic time.

The highlight of the day was the Under Your Skin workshop! This was linked year 3's science topic and was all about the human body. Children learnt about what we should eat to keep healthy and how different foods help different parts of our body. Lots of children took part as volunteers, from the being blood moving around the body to deciding where different teeth belong in the mouth.

Teachers were very proud of Year 3 on this trip, as their behaviour was excellent; well done!
