BAMM Makeup

This Sunday we had the pleasure of visiting BAMM (Bath Academy of Media Makeup). We were welcomed and brought into the main studio where they talked us through the different stages of applying makeup. They gave us tips and tricks on what products to use and which were at a reasonable price. Then they set us the challenge of creating a formal and natural ‘interview look’. During the process, they helped us along and gave us tips on how to improve our looks by making special features in our faces stand out. Some examples: people learnt how to do their eyebrows, most people had their eyebrows plucked and will be devastated when they grow back and we finally learnt how to apply eyeshadow correctly. If we would’ve had to go to an interview everyone would have gotten their jobs because of their amazing looks.

We had a great time and highly recommend going.

Year 10 Sport

Last Sunday, Year 10 were treated to sport as our activity for the day. Miss Sullivan showed us various conditioning exercises for different muscle groups, such as abs and legs. She gave informed tips and explained how to make the exercises the correct difficulty for ourselves. The hour in the dance studio went really quickly as we were listening to music and giving feedback. It was a great activity for our Year 10 group!

Halloween Baking

I really liked the baking activity we did this weekend. We made muffins, cookies and crispy treats. There were a lot of things to decorate them with, such as hot chocolate, icing, gummy sweets, chocolate figures, mini marshmallows, chocolate toppings, and sprinkles in all the Halloween colours! We had a lot of Halloween pastry cutters, shaped like pumpkins, ghosts, and even a witch. The result was very appealing and scary, ready for the Halloween season! They were all delicious! We all had a great time at baking and really enjoyed eating them.
