RSHE Lesson
In today's RSHE lesson, we focused on exploring how to respond to aggressive or inappropriate behaviour. Through discussions and role-playing various scenarios, the students learned to identify such behaviours and developed strategies for responding effectively. By the end of the session, all the students felt confident in their ability to handle these situations appropriately if they were to encounter them.

Science Experiment - Sound
Today in Science, we aimed to explore how sound becomes fainter as the distance from its source increases. To investigate, we conducted a comparative test to observe how the sound of a drum changes as we move further away from it. The students of Sycamore designed their own inquiries to address this question.
