# Year 4 - Science: Researching Habitats

  ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/news/IMG_2175.jpeg)   17 September 2024

This week, our super scientists in Year 4 headed to Whitehall Park to research an urban woodland habitat. We noted down any animals and plants we saw and commented on the climate and conditions. The children found various micro habitats too. They were able to identify the fundamental characteristics of a habitat and they used their knowledge to build micro habitats for insects.
