Year Three are snuggled down and fast asleep in their beds! Here are some posing pics in their dorms earlier – lots of pink in the girls room and lots of lynx in the boys! 🛏😴👍🏻

They were very surprised at the results, it’s a lot more than you would ever imagine! Thanks to all of the science ambassadors for…
