Brazil or Bannockburn? Using Virtual Reality in Year 6

Have you ever wanted to visit the Amazon Rainforest? 

Have you ever wanted to explore the Amazon River? 

Well.. Year 6 have! 

This week, as part of our Geography learning about South America and Brazil, children had the chance to immerse themselves in the Amazon Rainforest. 

Children used the VR goggles to trudge through the Amazon, gaze at the wonderful wildlife and listen to the meandering river. This opportunity really brought all their learning to life! 



"The VR goggles were amazing - it felt like I was in the Amazon!"

"The Amazon is so colourful. It doesn't look like England at all."

"I loved visiting the Amazon Rainforest and seeing the wildlife."
