It is Chicken Hatching Time at Micklefield!

Excitement is in the air as six chicken eggs have arrived in our school incubator.  The hatching countdown has begun! In a couple of weeks time we hope to witness the magic of them hatching (estimated hatching date 16 May).

In Science, Year 4 have been diving into the fascinating world of chicken eggs. They have been investigating the most successful conditions for hatching - exploring temperature, airflow and egg rotation to ensure the best possible outcome.

We look forward to sharing more news on the eggs and hatching in the weeks ahead.
