Scitech

On Wednesday 19 February, Scitech visited us to work with all of our classes. The junior classes enjoyed a show and workshops focussed on the many ways to investigate using our hands. Our Year 4-6 classes used scientific thinking to explore surprising mysteries. Scientists are always observing the world and trying to explain what’s going on. But sometimes mysterious things happen – things that don’t match what we expect. This is exciting, because it helps us better understand the world we live in – and can lead to amazing new science and technologies.

On Friday, 10 students from Year 5 and Year 6, visited the St Matthew’s Parish to complete Altar Serving training with Father Joe.
