Axe Valley STEM Day Our year 5 children had an amazing day taking part in a sports science day at Axe Valley Academy. We took part in an action-packed day, learning what it takes to be an elite athlete. First, we had a science lesson, where we conducted a series of practical experiments learning about how we release energy for exercise. Our second lesson was a PE lesson, where we tested our power and speed in high jump. We also looked at the world record length for the long jump - it took us 5 jumps to make this distance!! We then had a go at the Illinois agility test. Finally, we took part in a food technology lesson, where we made fruit skewers. We focused on using a range of different coloured fruits and consuming a range of vitamins to best support our bodies. What an incredible day!
