We’ve had an exciting start to Term 3 in Science with classes participating in a range of engaging experiments exploring forces, electricity and cells.

Our Year 7 students have been busy designing and creating parachutes to test the effect of different variables on the time they take to land.

In Year 8, students have been exploring cells, looking at their different functions, sizes and how they work together to form living organisms.

Year 9 has been electrifying this Term, with students exploring circuits, looking at the differences between AC and DC currents.

Fast approaching is National Science Week 13th-21st of August with this year’s theme being Glass – More Than Meets The Eye. This year we will be hosting a range of lunch time activities in E1 each day of Science Week, with the opportunity to create sun catchers, kaleidoscopes & a range of other fun activities. A Forms link will be sent in Compass, for sign-ups. If you would like more information, message Mr Dunkley on Teams.
