In Form VI Science, we have been investigating how sugar dissolves. Each group chose their own variable: water colour, sugar type, water amount or water temperature. It was really interesting to see how solubility changed (or not!).
Form IV had a fantastic outing at Forest School today. We went on a bird scavenger hunt, created muddy face designs on trees, developed out whittling skills and even made bird feeders! We had a lot of fun and learned so much at the same time.
Welcome back everyone and Happy New Year! We couldn’t wait to get back to school and quickly set to work writing a brief Holiday News in our Activity Books before Assembly. In English, we tried so hard to listen carefully to our friends’ best bits of the holidays and recall them in a Speaking and…
