Today marks the last day for our students from Ashbury College. They started their morning with a 'bell-ringer' quiz and then the group split in order for some to head off whale watching while the others spent time in the lab conducting independent lab work; individually and in pairs. There were many different and very interesting experiments going on, some involving invertebrates, seaweed and even one involving our skates! This afternoon the groups will switch activities. I have to say for my very first large group of students, these guys were great and very patient. Thank you Ashbury for a very pleasant start to my journey.
Next week we have two groups joining us for the week. Rohan Woods School and Selwyn House will both be enjoying our great Huntsman hospitality and educational resources. I am sure it will be an exciting and informative time for all of us. Check in next week for more news on our incoming groups. Also be sure to keep an eye out for our Toddler Time Program, set to launch for October.
