• Family Friday session:

  It was fantastic to welcome so many parents and carers to our Family Friday Science session this week! The session provided a wonderful opportunity to share the children’s learning and progress, as well as for families to enjoy time together in the classroom environment.

  

• 🔬Science week

  Fri 13 Mar 2026

  As part of science week, Millfield children from Nursery to Year 4 created stunning pieces of artwork inspired by patterns in nature. Each year group explored a different theme, from leaf patterns and spirals to symmetry, animal markings and patterns in water. The children showed great curiosity while learning about these natural patterns and their thoughtful pupil voice comments were added to the artwork to share their observations. The final pieces look absolutely amazing and really showcase the children’s science and creativity learning. 🎨✨

   

  Over the week, children across all year groups have taken part in a range of exciting science explorations. From melting chocolate and learning about rocks to testing foil boats and much more, the children have loved investigating, experimenting and discovering new things. It has been a fantastic week of curiosity and hands-on learning! 🔬✨
