At South Milford primary school, we develop inquisitive, curious scientists through a confidently taught curriculum. South Milford learners are actively engaged through exploratory, investigative and knowledge-based lessons. Children are able to work scientifically across a well-resourced curriculum whilst making links to other subjects and their knowledge of the world around them. Our children are mini scientists who shine!
During book week 2022 we researched and found out all about keystone animals based on the book The Greatest Animal of All by Penny Worms.
Year 1 were chosen to represent their animal at the Great Science Share alongside the other STARMAT primary schools. The children found out all about Sea Stars and have written and illustrated their own books, created and decorated clay models, designed a rock pool and taken part in a Sea Star workshop with The Yorkshire Wildlife Trust. The children have loved being a part of this fantastic experience and we are already planning the 2023 Science Share STARMAT event!
