Hello Parents,  Welcome to an invigorating and fun week of summer school.Our theme for this week was Art and Science. Our week was filled with a wide range of learning experiences for all students. Students started the week by looking at the  different parts of plants and their functions. They then cut out the different parts of a flower and put them on a sheet to make the full plant. Students worked in pairs to  make a life-sized body map to learn about human anatomy.
