History - Mummified Tomatoes! - March 2025 

We each had a tomato and we worked together.  We covered the tomato in salt and bicarbonate soda. It was really fun and really messy!

When the mummification was finished we had to leave it in a pot for 40 days and the container had to be air tight. 

Last week, got to look at them. The tomato we had left, without putting salt on it, had rotted and was mouldy but the mummified ones still looked like tomatoes and they were yellow where we had cut them!

Science - Our Trip to Hyde Hall - March 2025 

We went to Hyde Hall on a sunny day. I had a thrilling day and I went to a visiting area for schools. We learnt lots about plants. (Clarke H)

At Hyde Hall we made our own plant pots and planted some seeds. (Maria)

I had an extraordinary day at Hyde Hall. We went on a plant hunt and Lily in my class found a white flower like a lily that she kept. We learnt that lots of things are made from plants such as cotton and the best thing we learnt was about tropical fruits. (Sophia)
