Andreas teaching the class Origami


Operation Origami

Andreas has worked hard to learn how to make some complicated origami models, including colourful floral wheels, by folding coloured paper.  He rose well to the challenge of teaching his class mates how to make these.
Thank you Andreas for sharing your knowledge and skills.










Science


Middle School Science Club

On Thursdays at lunchtime some keen young scientists can be found meeting in the Hall kitchen to explore and experiment.
Antony and Neil were fascinated to see what happened when drops of food colouring were added to a bowl of water.







Celebrating Diwali

Today we learnt about Diwali, a Hindu festival held at this time each year.  Some students and teachers dressed in traditional Indian clothing, including Shyla.  She and Shiloh also shared with us their research covering aspects of Indian culture such as food, celebrations, art (Rangoli patterns), accessories, stories, music, sports and clothing.



Shyla and Shiloh sharing their research.

We were interested to learn about Shyla's culture.
