Themed lessons took place throughout the College today! We spotted one such lesson in Prep where as part of a 'George's Marvellous Medicine' science experiment, they created 'rainbow rain clouds!' They used shaving foam to create the clouds and food colouring to create the rainbow rain! The rain coloured the transparent water into a rainbow solution!

Prep and our House Teams were asked to 'Book-ify' their doors today, with pupils researching, creating and showing off their artistic skills! There will be a winner - who would you choose to win?
