SCIENCE

In the last week of term two, spread over two days Melbourne University came to the school to engage the students with some cool Science demonstrations including a rubens tube to show sound waves, a bike wheel that visual showed students forces and some Chemistry.

Once the students had watched the Science show, the students were then split into two groups. The first group learnt a little bit about Chemistry then applied that knowledge to make ice cream. The second group were introduced to Engineering. The class was split into groups of four and were given a task of building a tall and strong building with only a limited amount of supplies and a time limit. All the students that participated in this program loved the hands on activities that were provided and the Science show the Melbourne University provided.
