The Y6 children enjoyed dissecting hearts this week and, from their research, were able to identify the left and right ventricles. For any science nerds out there (like Miss Dakin!) the left ventricle has a thicker muscle as it needs to pump blood to the body. The right ventricle has thinner walls as this pumps blood a shorter distance to the lungs. The children were absolutely buzzing about the lesson and thoroughly enjoyed it! #engageandinspire
