We demonstrated how rays of light come from the sun and create light on the parts of earth which are facing the sun, and that the areas that are facing away are in darkness. The children have been working hard to develop their written explanations using lots of scientific vocabulary. ### Exploring day and night [![](https://files.schudio.com/samlesbury-ce-primary-school/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/exploring-day-and-night/E803ED80-EB72-47CA-87D0-AA274BF43998.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/samlesbury-ce-primary-school/images/gallery/exploring-day-and-night/E803ED80-EB72-47CA-87D0-AA274BF43998.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/samlesbury-ce-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/gallery/sukkahs-1/IMG_0651.JPG)](https://samlesburyceprimary.co.uk/blog/2021-10-22-10-15-00-sukkahs) Previous ### [Sukkahs](https://samlesburyceprimary.co.uk/blog/2021-10-22-10-15-00-sukkahs) [![](https://files.schudio.com/samlesbury-ce-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/blog/445655F8-A7ED-48FD-8B23-1AFC641F00F9.jpeg)](https://samlesburyceprimary.co.uk/blog/2021-11-15-16-24-58-visit-from-a-paralympic-champion-stuart-robinson) Next ### [Visit from a Paralympic Champion - Stuart Robinson ](https://samlesburyceprimary.co.uk/blog/2021-11-15-16-24-58-visit-from-a-paralympic-champion-stuart-robinson) ##### Location Potters Lane Samlesbury Preston Lancs PR50UE ##### Contact Us 01772 877200 ##### Stay Connected - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100086396911494) - [Governor and Staff Portal](https://samlesburyceprimary.co.uk/governor-and-staff-portal) - [Calendar](https://samlesburyceprimary.co.uk/calendar) © Copyright 2018–2026 Samlesbury CE Primary School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://samlesburyceprimary.co.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
