Science Fair

On Tuesday 10th Sep, Year 5 STEM and Years 6-8 Science classes hosted the annual Science Fair Evening to showcase some outstanding projects around the topic of Energy. Year 7 students used the design thinking method to research issues surrounding energy use and to come up with a solution to an identified problem, a demonstration of a concept or development of an awareness campaign on an identified issue. The Year 8 students explored the workings of a cell by producing models and displays on the comparison of two or more types of cells. Displays included jelly and lollies to represent organelles within a cell and utilisation of the 3D printer to produce miniature plastic models. Students worked tirelessly to produce some outstanding displays and models that they were proud to demonstrate and discuss with their parents and other members of The Lakes community.
