Day of AI

On Monday the 16th of May all the Year 5 & 6 students participated in the Day of AI as the National Science Week theme is Innovation: Powering Future Industries. The theme incorporates the advancement in technology in all industries, especially using artificial intelligence (AI). The students learned all about artificial intelligence through participating in a range of hands-on activities such as: using Google Quick Draw to learn about how AI uses datasets to make predictions of what you are drawing; using the Teachable Machines website to make their own AI that recognises if you are doing rock, paper, or scissors; learning about how deepfakes are made; and developing their own AI solution to improve the school community. Overall, the day was a fantastic opportunity for students to learn about science and technology.  

Year 3&4

The Year 3&4 students have been learning about a range of different forces through a range of different hands-on activities. The students have also explored how the size of a force impacts how an object moves. 

Year 5&6 

The Year 5&6 students have started to use Scrappy Circuits to construct a simple circuit as part of their learning about open and closed circuits.
