Our pupils made their own bolognese sauce from scratch — they peeled, chopped, cooked and even washed up! 🍝 They designed labels too!

📐 Year 5/6 have been getting hands-on with angles today! We explored how the three angles inside any triangle — no matter its shape or size — always add up to 180°. By cutting up triangles and fitting the angles together, the children made their own discoveries! pic.twitter.com/Cse5zSHV0l— Burston and Tivetshall Primary Schools (@BurstonSchool) April 29, 2025
