During the first term of school our Transition Year students worked on Science projects to take part in Scifest@School. Ms. Lynch and Herr Drechsler very kindly judged the projects on Tuesday 26th November.
We were delighted with how confident and capable the students were when presenting their work. The winners, as well as some other very interesting projects, will go on to take part in Scifest@College later in the school year.
