• Year 2 science investigation

  Mon 20 Mar 2023

  Today, children in Year 2 walked to Minet Country Park to investigate the question 'Why do rabbits live at Minet Country Park?'. We looked for things that a rabbit needs to survive and discussed why it is a good habitat for rabbits. We recorded our observations onto a table and will use them to answer our question in our next science lesson. Some classes even got to see some rabbits hopping around!
