Our Lady of Mercy

Yesterday, our students were treated to an exciting Super Sonic Science Incursion, packed with experiments, fascinating demonstrations, and plenty of opportunities to explore the wonders of science. From colourful chemical reactions to mind-blowing scientific discoveries, students were captivated as they investigated how science helps us understand the world around us. A big thank you to the Super Sonic Science team and our fabulous science teacher Mrs Petitt for inspiring our young scientists and sparking curiosity, creativity, and a love of learning. We can't wait to see where their scientific thinking takes them next!
