This week, Year 6 had an unforgettable science lesson as part of their topic on the circulatory system. The highlight was watching Mr Larkham dissect a real heart and lungs!
Both classes gathered around as Mr. Larkham carefully demonstrated how the heart works, showing its chambers, valves, and blood vessels up close. Pupils were fascinated to see how this incredible organ pumps blood around the body. They were also able to see first-hand how important the lungs are in the circulatory system as this is where the oxygen that we breathe is absorbed into the blood stream
The children asked brilliant questions and made thoughtful observations, linking what they had already found out about the circulatory system in a previous lesson. It was a fantastic hands-on experience that brought science to life!
Thanks to Mr Larkham for taking time out of his day to do this dissection.
