Once again Covid-19 played havoc with our plans and our Term 4 Year 7/8 trip was cancelled. So we put our heads together and came up with some alternatives. First up we got together with the Alpine Lodge and planned a formal dinner for the seniors. With a three course meal on the cards, the seniors dressed up in their black tie best and enjoyed a true dining experience. There was bubbly in wine glasses, toasts and a chauffeured ride home in style...well, in the school buses at least.

The kids had such a fabulous experience I wouldn't be surprised if this becomes an annual event.

One of the best ways to teach science with children is doing experiments with items they're familiar with...like food. So this is exactly what the juniors did this term. Some of their experiments were:

• Floating Eggs
• Bouncy Eggs
• Raising Raisens
• Unicorn Noodles
• Dancing Ghost

The juniors also invited some parents in to share some cooking from their own culture.
