Science & Physics

Year 8 Science

Our Year 8 students have been learning about cells in Term 1. They learned the similarities and differences between plant and animal cells. They observed specialised cells and cell organelles under microscopes which was a very popular piece of science equipment among students. Students had lots of hand-on opportunities and great discussions about cells and their importance for lives. The photos show our passionate learners with their creative Cell Analogy Projects in which they made analogies between cell organelles and kitchen appliances and marine ecosystems.

Year 9 Science

The Year 9 students were learning about different parts of the brain and their functions. A variety of activities were provided to engage students and support their learning. Students made their own Brain Hat on which they labelled lobes of the brain. The Year 9’s also conducted a sheep brain dissection and studied the internal structure of the brain. The colouring worksheet provided visualised learning opportunities for students. 

Science is so fun!

Year 10 Physics

As students, we thrive to develop the minds of tomorrow and pursue respect, excellence and citizenship. The experiment that we conducted made us discover the true values and strengths of the Hot Wheels (cars). We applied prior knowledge we gathered throughout the term to determine the velocity and acceleration whilst using displacement and time to do so. Students of Miss Tang were delighted with this practical task, and we were very engaged while performing this practical experience.
