Castleside Primary School Links with the community to enrich Science outside the classroom

Castleside Primary School has partnered with the local community to enrich science education outside the classroom. Through a low-cost and innovative approach, students have participated in planting bulbs in the nearby graveyard, fostering connections with citizenship, environment care, and improving lives through science. This project has not only added color and interest to the area but has also enhanced students' understanding of life cycles and gardening.

  2. Summary of Content Castleside have taken the children out into the community to improve their surrounding area in an innovative, low cost way. They has also led to links with other curriculum areas such as citizenship and caring for the environment and how Science can help people and improve their lives.

  3. What the school says It was a relatively low cost, high impact way of working together with the local community to improve an area close to the school grounds. It also reinforced children’s learning about life cycles and gardening.

  4. What we did As part of a project with the local community, children from our school were taken to plant bulbs in the local graveyard. This added much needed colour and interest.

  5. The impact for our school was ..... Some of the children involved hadn’t been to the graveyard before. It also gave us an opportunity to talk about citizenship and how we can improve our local environment.

  6. Science Subject Leader Comments We only needed basic gardening equipment. Our bulbs were supplied free by our local council and parental contributions.

  7. What we will do next It would be ideal if we could look to improve another local area by planting bulbs again.
