We had a great time at the Education Centre in Cilfynydd. The children took part in two activities, the first activity was visiting the river. The children had to measure the flow of the river using dog biscuits and finding the average time they took to travel 5m. After this the children used nets to catch minibeasts living in the river and used their charts to find out what they had caught.
After lunch in the sun the children then visited the centres pond where again they used nets to catch minibeasts and used microscopes to look closely at what they had caught. It was a great day and an excellent start to our new Cornerstones topic Bend and Flow - Rivers.
