On Thursday, Year 1 visited the Lifebus. We learnt about how to eat the right fruit and vegetables to keep us healthy. We also learnt about different parts of the body and what they do. For example our heart pumps the blood around our body. Our lungs help our body send oxygen around our body. We had lots of fun learning about how to keep healthy and can’t wait for it to visit again next year!

On the life bus we learnt about how it might harm you if you are around smoke because children are still developing. We also went to Diversity World with Harold and his friends Derek and Kiki. But they all wanted to go to different places at Diversity World.  Poplar class were thinking about how to solve a problem like this in real life and came up with some super ideas.

Poplar used the life bus to visit ‘Conformatron’. A planet where everyone was the same. They had fun identifying how they were different and why this made them special.

Many thanks to Pete for taking us on a tour of the life bus!

Elm and Beech Class climbed aboard the Life Bus on Friday to learn more about their bodies! They discussed which part of the body they thought was the most important, with answers such as brain, heart and bones being popular, however they soon found out they were all as important as each other! They even learned the scientific term ‘gluteus maximus’ which they found particularly interesting!

Well done to everyone in Poplar class for trying their best. In maths we have completed fractions and applied our knowledge to real life problems. In English we have been studying newspapers and identifying features. Keep up the good work Poplar class !
