We had another amazing Science Week in school! On Tuesday our junior school classes took part in a workshop with Gabi from Creative Classrooms. They learned lots about the scientific topic of light and shadow. On Wednesday we had our annual Super Science Quiz in the hall. It was very close and everyone showed off all their scientific knowledge! Congratulations to team nine on their win! Finally, on Friday our senior school classes took part in a workshop with Roisin from Mess Chef. The children learned about acids, bases and chemical reactions while making delicious doughnuts and pink lemonade!
