Year 8, 9 and 11 had the opportunity to dissect hearts in science. The pupils were very brave during the dissection. Everyone enjoyed the heart dissection and it was a fascinating experience that is at the core of our circulatory system, and our body as a whole.
Dissecting animal organisms is a tricky subject which ultimately some will object to and that’s okay. For us, we believe that with careful scientific exploration of animals who were treated in humane ways, we can learn and teach our students to be greater stewards of the environment, and especially toward the species they just learned about.
