Heathrow Primary School
Virtual reality workshop (VR):
Heathrow Primary School welcomed PrimeVR. This is one of the UK’s leading VR workshop company for schools and was founded in 2017 by Stuart Gent, a qualified teacher and passionate EdTech advocate. With the use of immersive technology, PrimeVR was able to bring the outside world into the classroom and transport students through time and space.
Year 3 went back in time to the Stone Age. The children had the opportunity to embed their prior learning from the autumn term.
Year 5 went on a virtual trip to see the Acropolis, the Parthenon, and a reconstructed Greek Island in the Aegean Sea. This helped bring learning to life and created excitement for their upcoming Greek topic.
Year 6 travelled back in time and learned about some of the key events that unfolded during WW2. This workshop helped bring learning to life and created excitement for their upcoming WW2 topic.
