Shrove Tuesday!

Shrove Tuesday is the day before Ash Wednesday and traditionally a day of celebrating and feasting before Lent starts. Shrove Tuesday is also known as Pancake Day, when households used up luxuries such as butter/lard, eggs and milk before Lent! Room 6 enjoyed making their own pancakes!

We also prepared the ashes for Ash Wednesday with Monsignor John, using the palms from Palm Sunday. The ashes represent the dust from which God made us.

Elliot's Volcano!

We had great fun when Elliot showed us how to make a volcano. The chemical reaction between baking soda, water, vinegar, cornflour and dishwashing liquid was amazing to watch.
Thanks, Elliot!

Our visit to the Kavanagh Science Labs!

On Wednesday afternoon the senior students were very lucky to be able to visit the science labs at Kavanagh College. We had a great time exploring the lab and doing some hands on chemistry!

                               


With the help of some Year 12 students we did some experiments to learn about acids and bases!
