February 2010 - Trip to Rome

Over the February half-term holiday, a group of 34 Senior Girls enjoyed a three day break in Rome as part of their RE and Art studies. It was an exhausting stay as we packed as much as possible into the time available - the Colosseum, the Pantheon, the Forum, the Vatican and the Castel Sant Anglo to name but a few of the sights we saw. There were many lighthearted moments too - as we given roses at the Spanish Steps, travelled back to Ancient Rome on the flight simulator at the Rome Experience (the rats running across our legs felt extremely real!) and last, but certainly not least, we threw our coins in the Trevi Fountain and sampled the speciality - Italian ice cream. The weather was disappointing - but happily nothing else was.

Royal Society of Chemistry

The Chemistry Department had a very interesting visitor this term when a member of the Royal Society of Chemistry visited us to talk to Senior 3 and 4 about opportunities in Science in Higher Education, the UCAS system with particular emphasis on Chemistry. The girls found the talk very informative and hopefully some will apply to join Royal Society themselves.
