Circuit Week
Year 2 have carried out experiments relating to electricity during the 'Electric Circuit Week' (Please use the below link)
Rocket Science
On the 2 nd September 2015 2 kilograms of rocket seed were sent to the International Space Station and stored in microgravity by Tim Peake, before the seeds were returned to Earth in spring 2016. Year 2 were fortunate in being able to conduct an experiment with two packets of the rocket seed. One pack was blue and one pack was red. One of the seed packets had been stored in space, the other hadn’t. We have no idea which is which. Our experiment, which was kindly overseen by Dr. Ross consisted of both packets of seeds, red and blue, being sown in identical conditions by Year 2 in an effort to discover whether storing the seeds in microgravity made any difference to the germination process.

Prizes at Rayleigh Primary School!
There was a long queue in the hall. There were giggles of excitement and smiles of happiness. The dinnerladies were handing out the plates of food. For lunch, there was Chicken teddies, Curly fries, Spaghetti hoops and a chocolate chip muffin. The prizes were Zomblings, loombands and Lego figures. Mr Burton, who was very angry, was wondering where the chicken pie was, as it is his favourite. Here is a quote from Mr Burton ‘Where is the Chicken Pie!". But Rhianna and Alexandra from 5JB brightened up his lunch time as all ways. A quote from Lexie ‘You could see that he was disappointed from the dis - hearted look in his eyes.’ YUM YUM !!
