THURSDAY 21ST MAY 2020 DEAR PARENTS Robert Teague, Headmaster SCIENCE MAKING INSTANT ICE CREAM As the temperature begins to rise we start listening out for the tell tale jingle of the ice cream van. This half term why not make your own ice cream using a method from the science museum. This could be a fantastic activity for the whole family to distract and engage over the half term.

Great source of simple science activities that can be done at home during lockdown (Click on image above) Thank you to your sons for their fantastic contributions to our bulletins so far: please encourage them to keep sending material in. Our theme this week is science and you can find a few suggestions here for practical scientific activities during lockdown. At The Cedars we are keen that the subject should be learnt in as practical way as possible. This is largely because carrying out experiments oneself can really help engage interest and improve understanding. One of the activities in today’s bulletin is making ice cream which should certainly engage interest in this weather! On another note, I thought I would update you on progress in preparing for the new school year. While we wait for work on the new building to start, we are doing all we can to increase and improve our accommodation for 2020-21. Specific projects include: The conversion of G3 to a large Music Room which will provide a much better space for rehearsing as well as a more central venue for lunchtime performances. The incorporation of G2 into the ground floor library, thus doubling its size. The conversion of Park Lodge for use a Sixth Form facility with common room and additional study area. The relocation of the learning support area from Park Lodge to The Beeches. The installation of three new large Portakabin classrooms. This is all very exciting and while we still need the new building, things are certainly moving in the right direction! Next week is half term and it looks as though the weather is going to be fine. I wish you all a happy and restful break.

distract and engage over the half term.
