Today we investigated what would happen to the Gingerbread Man if he fell into different liquids. We submerged him in water, milk and oil and left him all day! At the end of the day, we discovered that he had broken up in the milk and water but not the oil! @MonksdownSTEM

#Class42 learning about circuits in science. @MonksdownSTEM

This afternoon #class33 carried out an investigation to find which type of rock would be most suited for a roof tile. @Year3Monksdown @MonksdownSTEM

This week in Science, we learned about how to keep ourselves safe when using electricity. We identified electrical hazards which can exist in our homes #class43 @MonksdownSTEM

In Science, #class33 investigated what happens to fossils over time. We then became palaeontologists, excavating our own fossils and created our own version of a fossil! @Year3Monksdown @MonksdownSTEM

#class11 had a lovely day at Martin Mere. @MonksdownSTEM

We have had an amazing first week back at school. This week we have been exploring electricity, experimenting with circuits and recording our findings. #class63 @MonksdownSTEM

#class63 have been exploring circuits again today. They are loving following @WhiteRoseEd Science curriculum to explore conductors and circuits. @MonksdownSTEM @MonksdownMakes

@MonksdownSTEM We can’t wait to get started on the growing season again. It seems as though MP’s are finally realising that gardening is good for children!! #monksdowngarden

Rakes at the ready Friday Gardening Club starts again after half term with @allotmentlady19 Miss Jen. Sign up with a letter from your teacher. #monksdowngarden @MonksdownSchool @MonksdownSTEM @MonksdownEco

#Class32 loved exploring our new science topic today! We spoke about forces and magnets and conducted an investigation measuring the force of different objects using a Newton meter @MonksdownSTEM

On Monday, #class13 discovered how quickly germs can spread! Afterwards we learnt how to wash our hands properly! @MonksdownPSHE @MonksdownSTEM

#class23 loved meeting Ava and beginning their journey to becoming Guardians of the Wild #Ava #GuardiansOfTheWild @WWTMartinMere

#class23 loved the visit to @WWTMartinMere

#class23 having some well earned fun after meeting Ava in the morning @WWTMartinMere

In Computing #class11 learnt how to use different features on the camera. We took some cool selfies and edited them using filters and pens. @MonksdownDL @Year2Monksdown

Forces quiz for Year 5 unit of work. #monksdown #science #stem #physics

Tomato plants from @Year1Monksdown are getting stronger every day now ready to be transferred into grow bags they are going to be amazing 🙌🏼 @MonksdownSchool @MonksdownSTEM 🪴🍅#monksdowngarden

Colour is popping up in different places now in the garden @MonksdownSchool plants are definitely loving the sunshine ☀️ #monksdowngarden @MonksdownSTEM

So many crops are really starting to grow @MonksdownSchool @MonksdownSTEM it’s so exciting to see this garden evolve all it needs is a few budding gardeners to come and enjoy it! @RHSSchools we can’t wait to see you all! #monksdowngarden
