Year 5 Skype the North Pole

As part of their Perishing Poles topic, on the 6th February our Year 5 pupils spent the afternoon in discussion with a scientist in the Princess Elizabeth Station in Antarctica. They have been finding out lots of information about the station and the work of the scientists as well as the weather and living conditions in Antarctica. The children were in contact via Skype and enjoyed being able to speak directly with the scientist. A huge thank you to the @PolarFoundation for setting up a Skype call!
