From RE …

Year 7

This week in RE the Year 7s have been learning about Diwali, the Hindu festival of light. Many Hindus create ‘Rangoli’ from coloured sands or pastes, and put them on the floor to welcome in Lakshmi, goddess of wealth and purity. The Year 7s have been designing their own Rangoli, and here are a few examples. Lovely work, girls – they would brighten up a doormat!

Some really good work from Charlotte Mayers in Year 7 and her own storyboard on Rama and Sita. Extremely detailed and above and beyond the work set.

From Chemistry …

Year 10

The first image is Mariko Eglin’s summary of the chemical tests she is learning about in GCSE Chemistry – scientifically explained and beautifully presented!

The second is a grid full of beautifully drawn and scientifically labelled separation techniques done by Maiya Allchin.  The attached document is also about separation techniques, done by Maisie Pryke.
