At the start of science week, Malumbe class have been exploring the angles created by reflecting light in a mirror. They discovered the angle of reflection matches the angle of the light coming from the light source. Luckily, the skies were very grey today so they could see the rays of light very clearly.

New carpenters in school!

Chagwa Class have been learning to cut wood with a saw.
Skills for the future!

Here are some pictures showing products produced by our IGCSE Art Students.

Happy John Chilembwe Day

Happy John Chilembwe Day

It was a busy week in Chagwa class. They have been investigating using clay this week. They will be making artefacts which link to their Ancient Egypt topic.

Year 7 students are back with a bang! They are studying more about volcanism in geography. They come up with an idea to showcase how magma erupts, they conducted a simple experiment 🧪 using sand, soda, vinegar and water.

Great start to the term.

Chagwa class used the computers to change shapes and create flags. They used then"fill" "bring forward" and "send back" commands and manipulated the shapes and colours.

During the holiday we also turned S3 (one of our secondary classrooms) into a library. This will provide a good environment for students to read and study.

During the holiday we made some changes to our secondary block. We split S2 into two separate classrooms and in doing so managed to create space for a science lab. We are sure our students will enjoy using our new facilities.

COVID vaccines are now available for students aged 12 to 17 years old.

On Friday we held our Christmas Singalong where each class from Pre-Nursery to Year 11 sang a different festive song. We will be posting the songs on our Facebook and Instagram pages on different days during the Christmas period.

Yesterday, our secondary basketball team played a match against Mulunguzi School. Both teams played brilliantly. The final score was 29-23 to Mulunguzi.

Our Year 9 Class have been learning first aid during their Life Skills Classes. They learnt about the recovery position and how to help someone choking.
