Lumiere comes to Durham every two years and the children in Year 6 enjoy taking part in science projects which are linked around the festival.
This year, Year 6 (and some of Year 5) children have been working with Helen, from the Lumiere project, to look at patterns in nature. We looked at our eyes and the patterns inside of them. We created our own snowflake patterns and we used the microscope to find out more about patterns in tiny substances. We even created art work based on wonderful patterns and designs in nature.
