Our event has gone from strength to strength in recent years. This year our visual and performing artists, scientists and CAS groups explored the theme \u2018Curious You\u201d. As well as an exceptional broad display of individual art works from across the School, the collaborative \u2018Illuminate House Challenge\u2019 encouraged members of each House to reflect on and identify what creates belonging in their House. Congratulations to the winners Abbeythorpe, the House Captains and to all those who contributed to these collaborative works.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Throughout the night we were entertained with performances from solo dancers, members of the choir, the Hip Hop crew and the Pom team.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">There were also many opportunities for visitors to explore their own creativity. I managed to successfully program a robot with the help of the robotics team; got my photo taken on \u2018the red carpet\u2019 due to the talents of the students running the green screen; and made my own friendship bracelet. Others enjoyed the opportunity to make chocolate truffles; contribute to the Business Club\u2019s soon to be published Recipe Book; or learn more about the creative process, and importance of curiosity by watching some of the videos made by our students.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Congratulations to our Arts Captains and to their teachers and mentors:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Heads of Department: TAS \u2013 <strong>Renee Willemsen<\/strong>, Visual Arts \u2013<strong> Sally Marks<\/strong>, and Assistant Head of Department TAS and Illuminate Coordinator <strong>Caitlin White<\/strong>.
