Languages Week

During Languages Week online, students were able to participate in two competitions.

Kyaraben/edible food art

Thank you to all students who entered this competition. We appreciated you giving up your time and the effort made to create your designs. Featuring above are the top entries from the Edible Food Art competition.

Our tastebuds are probably the most important when appreciating a delicious meal, but the judges for our Edible Food Art competition think that presentation plays a huge part too. The arrangement of items, the usage of colour, the incorporation of different textures… they are all critical in making the Food Art ‘pop’! The judges thought they looked amazing – and almost too pretty to eat.

The judges had the very difficult task of choosing between them, but basing it on the two criteria - design (best French and/or Japanese fusion) and creativity – the judges are excited to announce our winner 

Mizuki Roche (7G), right, with honorable mentions to Jenny Lagadinou (9F), Victoria Ho (7G) and Matilda Renkin-Onwuji (8B).

House points were awarded for all entries, with additional points awarded to the place getters. Prizes will be presented once students return to school.

Thank you for inspiring us & Congratulations to you all.

Communicating through emojis

The task was to work out what message or movie title the emojis were trying to get across. No-one was able to get all 28 correct, but not through lack of trying.

Three students correctly identified 27 messages. 

Special congratulations go to Sophie Maltarollo (Year 10 - Kenny) - stumped on ‘Fire alarm’; Ava Collins (Year 7 – Kenny) and Trinity Taylor (Year 7 – Jackson) – both stumped on ‘Jaws’. 

House points were awarded to all participants.

Final placings were 1st - Jackson, 2nd - Mackellar, 3rd - Kenny, 4th - Melba
