Big hearted! Y6 dissection.
SCIENCE PRACTICAL
Year 6 pupils at Abbey rolled up their sleeves last week for a science lesson they’ll never forget – a full heart dissection! The young scientists were buzzing with excitement as they donned gloves and got hands-on with the real thing. There were plenty of gasps and giggles as they discovered just how cold the hearts felt and peered into the chambers to spot where blood once flowed. “It was amazing but also a bit creepy,” said one pupil, still wide-eyed after exploring the valves and vessels up close. The classroom may have smelled a bit like a butcher’s shop by the end, but the unforgettable experience left everyone fascinated by how the human body works. Teachers said the session brought science to life in a way no textbook ever could, leaving pupils with a new appreciation for their own beating hearts.
