Science in Rowan (Article 31)
During Science today in Rowan the children have been learning all about the skeleton and how our bones and parts of the body help us. Once we identified the different parts of the body and labelled them we then went onto to do an investigation. The investigation was to find out if our femur actually influenced how far we can jump due to the length of our femurs. The conclusion was that it did not make a difference at all.

Mummification in Beech!
Mummification is a very complicated process, but it gets you to the Afterlife, so it must be worth it!
You have to remove the important internal organs, then add salt and the wrapping begins. In Beech this week, not one Mummy, not two, but THREE child size Mummies were created in an afternoon of fun and learning.
