Today Prep 5 practised painting botanical illustrations ‘en plein air’ - to paint in the outdoors. Just like the famous impressionist artists Monet and Renoir, the girls observed the way the natural light fell on their subjects and mirrored their observations in their paintings.

Last night's PERFORM workshop welcomed Michele Bromley, a talented special effects and makeup artist. Michele’s work has taken her from feature films and Hollywood blockbusters to daytime TV and makeup for the stage, and it was fascinating for our girls to learn about her career.

Teachers love hearing about what their students have been inspired to do and so it was great to catch up with alumna Charlotte and find out how her Physics lessons at Truro High have led to her carrying out ground-breaking research in the jungles of Borneo.
