The academic year is coming to an end and exams are upon us.

Many thanks to Roxanne Pillay, John Watson and the Science partnerships funders for their incredible commitment to the STEPP Science school's partnership.

 

Every Wednesday afternoon Grade 12 Science learners, from many schools, visit St Anne's College for a Science practical lesson.
The learners' schools do not have laboratories and so together we follow up on their Science lessons with the practical application.

The Education Department prescribes four practicals that must be covered and in the four terms preceding final Grade 12 exams, they take part in the practicals at the College.
The partnership is complete for the year and our thanks go to the schools for their active participation and superb commitment to the partnership.
Huge thanks from Louise Taylor.
