Children of Mapplewells took part in fieldwork activities this week, which is an essential part of a geographical education. This year the theme for the National Fieldwork Fortnight is 'Environment' and the children got an opportunity to take their learning outside and carried out a number of investigations. 

EYFS children discovered various habitats in our school environment and compared them to the animals who live in the oceans. Children in KS1 investigated different types of insects and their habitats. LKS2 children went on a hunt and compared various colours in the school environment with colour swatches and UKS2 children investigated the speed of the wind on the day with the help of bubbles!

Children had an amazing time and loved taking part in the investigations.
