Hala ,Jack ,Feargus ,Rebekah and Ava (me) gave a tour of the school to head teachers from Iceland .It was scary at first but it was so interesting because we found out about things in the school that we never knew about .

Today we have done an experiment where we found out what it was like to be judged according to your appearance.

What we did was the people with blue eyes got separated from everyone else  and then every one had to make five paper chains to get paid (in house points)but the people with blue eyes got to use  sellotape and glue while everyone else didn’t  in the first five minutes.

After those first five minutes the people with blue eyes didn’t get to use the glue and sellotape and everyone else did but when we switched it changed to ten chains you have to make and then after that we had to make 25 chains.
