Yesterday our Year 7s were learning about grilling food - they did a fun experiment looking at the impact of painting some water onto their bread before grilling it to make toast. There we some great designs painted and they even got to eat their toast afterwards 😋🔥 pic.twitter.com/yVb5L0X9bd— Waldegrave School () May 16, 2025
