Science Roadshow

This week some students went and visited the Science Roadshow. The Science Roadshow was lots of fun, the children got to trial a whole range of different experiments as well as try to figure out the reasons why certain things worked the way they do.

Even the teachers learnt lots too.

And we sat down to learn about some different topics, such as how muscles work.

Aomi even won a pen with a caliper attached, which is used to measure the distance between two sides of an object.

Reminder: Science Fair projects should be coming together now, they are due next Friday.

Diet Water Presentation!

As part of their Cycle One presentation Diet Water created a video to help share their message of the importance of a healthy lifestyle.

Award of Merit - Week Nine

This week our Award of Merit went to Lara. Lara has been doing a fantastic job helping to lead her learning group, Da Food Fighters.

Codey and Codi were this weeks Red Card winners, well done.

Diet Water - Food Technology

As part of their inquiry focus some of the Diet Water group have been spending time with Mrs Watson in the Food Technology room. They have been looking at measurement and different ways to measure volume, so that when the time comes they are able to follow recipes and turn out some tasty food.

I will never forget the time when I was at school and a group got mixed up between a cup and tablespoon when adding salt to their chocolate chip cookies. Yuck.
