On Wednesday 5 June, Year 6 carried out some fieldwork at school.
The children were split into small groups and asked to count how many cars, buses, vans, lorries, motorbikes and bicycles past Broom Hall in a 10 minute period. The children had great fun and the excitement levels reached new heights when a tractor, special sports car or a member of their family drove past!
The data was then collated by the geography department and the children have been shown the results in their lessons. They will also compare their findings with historical years results.
The children will then write up a project in their lessons which will include a methods, graphs and a conclusion and we will go on to discuss how traffic around school and within the UK could be reduced.
