On Thursday 24th May, 1st year Classical Studies students marked their last class by creating edible monsters.
From a selection of cupcakes, jelly snakes, chocolate buttons and pomegranate seeds, students made their own monster before devouring them. There were some Medusa buns and clever spiders to represent Arachne. Thanks to Maria for her iced Medusa cakes, Charlotte for her chocolate moon cookies to represent Artemis and Tom for his pomegranate representing Persephone, corn snacks for Demeter and jelly laces for the three Fates.
Congratulations to all of the 1st years for a great first year learning about ancient Greece and Rome.

The TY Horticulture class were out in the Autumn sunshine planting Spring bulbs using the chaos planting method. This is when a multitude of different spring bulbs (Hyacinths, Daffodils, Tulips, Crocuses, Narcissi) are mixed together and randomly planted so that we have a mixture of flowers and patterns emerging in the spring. It mimics nature and so is more enticing to pollinators and native insects that need the food in Spring.
