To link to their River topic, year 4 have been making miniature flowing river diagrams. They included features like meanders, source and tributaries by carving them into a hill. We tested them by pouring water from the top and seeing if it made it to the mouth.
Since Christmas the rain has been relentless. As you can see from the sorry state of the chicken run, the mud has taken over our outside spaces; fun for splashing in puddles but the chicks don't seem to appreciate that!
Luckily the Council parks service helped us out by delivering a truckload of fresh woodchippings. The Year 5s shoveled and raked it all over the muddy paths and made it look lovely again!
