Through squishing, stacking, and shaping, they discovered how rocks are built up over time — one colourful layer at a time! A brilliant blend of science and creativity. Well done!

📚✨ Looking to the Future! ✨📚 As part of our history topic, the children took a creative leap forward in time! Using an age-progression filter, each child got a glimpse of their future selves — wrinkles, grey hairs and all! 👵👴 They then imagined how they might change as they grow older!. 💭🌟 It was a brilliant mix of history, self-reflection, and a lot of giggles! 😄
