This week the four Year 1 classes enjoyed a visit to the Secondary Science labs, as part of their topic of 'Animals'. The children looked at an ammonite fossil, pine marten skull, gazelle skin, sheep skin, porcupine quills and various bird feathers. They completed their very own animal passport. Thank You Dr. Byron Woods for an informative, hands-on experience.
The children also had an opportunity to ask animal related questions to our expert. Please see below some of our interesting questions:
"Why do kangaroos jump high?" Farkas
" What is the difference between turtles and tortoises?" Leo
"Why do baby deer not have horns?" Alya
"Why do hyenas have whiskers?" Seongvin
"Why do giraffes have long necks?" Máté
"Why do cheetahs run so fast?" Malia

Year 12 have been spending a lot of time in Sports Hall One over the last week. Not doing sport, although they could tell you the science behind it…
There was a fun packed programme for the secondary students remaining on-site, which followed the 5 Co-Curricular strands. Students were immersed in languages, film-making, STEAM activities and cooking. They learned about children's rights and advocacy, and showed their creative talents through artwork. They hiked in the hills and formed friendships across year groups. See the Firefly page for further details and photographs
It has been a very memorable end of the primary journey for our Year 6 students. This last week of term has been jam packed. On Monday and Tuesday, the students performed the end of year production of ‘Olivia’, on Tuesday morning, there was a year group water fight and on Wednesday afternoon, they finally graduated with a special ceremony.
As a community, we've been actively promoting healthy eating habits through our weekly articles about life in the kitchen. With the summer holidays just a few days away and the heatwave this summer, we must all be more mindful of our fluid intake.
