The U6 girls welcomed our new L4 girls to Finlay for a pizza and movie evening. The L4 girls were in high spirits and greatly enjoyed playing games, eating pizza and watching a movie.

Born #OnThisDay in 1888 was seismologist and geophysicist Inge Lehmann ForMemRS. Lehmann is known for her 1936 discovery that the Earth's core must have a solid inner core inside a molten outer core. Before this, scientists believed that the core was a single molten sphere.
