Mrs Taylor has been completing Chemistry careers - cosmetics - with her S2 and S3 classes. S2 were making lip balm and S3 Chemists were making their own perfume with. The classes and the best thing is that all chemicals were natural ingredients! Lab smells lovely ⚗️🧪@LourdesSec

[Lourdes Science Dept @LourdesScience]

Good luck to all our amazing students sitting the Chemistry exam today! Today is the day to showcase all your hard work that you’ve completed this year! We are all so proud of you all. YOU CAN DO IT!!! 📄🧪 @LourdesSec #lourdesscience
