Victorian Young Physicists' Tournament

On 24 October, Terri Nguyen, Darren Heng and Tara Pringle participated in the Victorian Young Physicists' Tournament. It was held at Monash University, and schools from all over Victoria were there. We made many new friends from schools such as MacRob, Uni High and Wodonga Secondary College. The competition involved us working on three experiments throughout the year, and presenting our results and discussion at Monash Uni. It was an incredible experience, and we learnt so much about scientific communication and research. Our team came second in Victoria out of the Year 11 teams, and fourth overall. We were so glad to be able to have this opportunity, and it was worth all the afterschool experiments and meetings!
