Spring is irrevocably here! The weather is wonderful, and nature is renewing itself and bringing us all kinds of delicacies! Taking advantage of this, we have been treating our students and their teachers to fresh strawberries every week for two weeks now. And who can resist this mouth-watering, fresh, juicy, sweet fruit?
But strawberries are not just delicious; they also have several benefits. For example, it is high in vitamin C. One serving of strawberries (5-6 medium-sized pieces) provides half your daily vitamin C needs. The good news, especially for ladies, is that Vitamin C intake also affects collagen production, so strawberries can also help us fight wrinkles.
The antioxidants it contains help our bodies, including our eye health, but also help reduce inflammation.
Its fiber content helps the digestive system function properly and benefits insulin production.
Fun fact: The exciting thing about strawberries is that this plant, which belongs to the rose family, does not have a fruit, but we eat the pseudo-fruit that develops from the flower. That said, it can compete with any fruit.
Last but not least, our Chef has a few delicious new dishes for you this week too: refreshing and delicious Cucumber Soup and an amazing Gorgonzola Pork Chop with Pasta. We hope that our students will like this dishes, too! We are excited to hear your feedback!
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.
