Year 13 have been moving through their final unit on Organic Chemistry and performed a practical to extract limonene from, you’ve guessed it, oranges. (It is also in lemons, but oranges make the laboratory smell nicer!) They used simple distillation to collect the oil from the orange peel, and then performed a test to prove that it was what they expected it to be - it was.

Last week, Year 6 performed our wonderful musical production for the parents and younger children in school. It was a play called Troy Story - it was about the Greeks and Trojans who were at war and had lots of drama.
As the academic year draws to a close, our Early Years students marked the occasion in the most joyful way possible, with Splash Day, a much-loved BISB tradition that brings together sunshine, water play, and the simple delight of being a child.
