We would like to extend our sincere thanks to Dover Town Council for their generous £500 funding to support our school garden. The funding has enabled us to purchase gardening tools, vegetable plants and compost, helping us to develop the space into a learning environment.

Last Thursday, Science club used cyanotype paper, and acetate to create images by blocking out UV rays from the sun.
The boys worked hard on their original images on acetate, these were then left to develop using sunlight and these are some of the end results.
