Brrrr…It’s cold in here.

 

Year 4 were delighted to welcome an Arctic Explorer into the fold yesterday.  The children were enchanted by her stories and her experiences of the Arctic, and had so many questions to ask her about what it was like.


Some of the children know a surprising amount about Arctic animals! Even the teachers learnt things they didn't know!

Our favourite part was by far the science experiments in the afternoon, where we made some blubber gloves and submerged our hands into ice-cold water to see which was colder, the one with the blubber glove or the one without. 


We also made mountain glaciers with clay and cornflour. It was a hugely worthwhile experience and we loved every minute.
