Pig hearts

We were delighted to be able to dissect pig hearts in Year 6 this week. It was really exciting to see all the features we had been learning about for ourselves. We enjoyed identifying the different chambers, the main blood vessels, the valves and also comparing the thickness of the walls of the different chambers. It was a bit smelly and very messy but certainly memorable.
