✈️ Willow Class STEM Day! Our 26 young scientists investigated which paper airplane design flies the furthest. We made predictions, created a fair test, and explored forces including push, gravity, air resistance and lift. Lots of fantastic testing and scientific thinking!

Year 1 also had a great time hosting a gallery afternoon. Families came in to view our work on self portraits and spirals and supported us in developing more artwork.
