What is War?

How did the Second World War affect Wales? Why were children evacuated from their homes? Explore these questions and more in this special project about the Second World War and its impact on the towns and valleys of Wales. In this project, children will explore: what it was like to be an evacuee, the impact of evacuation on children and their families, the daily life of a child in wartime Wales, the effects and devastation of the Blitz, why some parts of Wales were more vulnerable to bombing than others and the life of Anne Frank. 

Please look through our image carousel which highlights some of our amazing work.

Also you can scan the QR Codes to listen to our presentations on the Blitz and also listen to our video walk through of our Anderson Shelters

We showcased our learning with a sharing day for parents and guardians

Is Science a Friend or Foe?

Crimson, scarlet, burgundy, cherry. Blood flows through our bodies in all its vibrant shades of red. Let’s explore our circulation system. Now, surgeons, don’t be squeamish as we dissect an animal heart and examine the veins, arteries and chambers up close. They all work hard to move blood around our bodies. William Harvey was fascinated with anatomy, and made groundbreaking discoveries about valves. I wonder what we might uncover? Why do people give blood? Find out how to keep your heart happy with cardiovascular exercise and healthy food. Kickstart a campaign to spread the word about the damage caused to the lungs and heart by smoking. Hearts pound, flutter and maybe skip a beat. What makes your heart race? Is it a secret? Cross my heart, I won’t tell.
