Science Week

On 15/08/2018 after lunch the entire school went to different areas of the school ground so we could discover science.

ELECTRICITY: The first thing we did was based on electricity. We had wires and batteries and light globes. We had to make power reach those globes to light them up creating a working electrical circuit. After that we made 1 battery pack reach 2 globes, then 1 battery pack reach 3 globes. We had success and were able to light the globes up after experimenting with the circuit.

MARSHMALLOW TOWER: We made a marshmallow tower using toothpicks and marshmallows. It was pretty fun (and messy). We had to plan out our tower on whiteboards and then create it. It had to stand for 30 seconds without toppling over. Sanj, George and this other student built a really tall tower made by toothpicks and marshmallows.  

PLASTICINE BOATS: We had to make a plasticine boat that could float and hold wooden blocks. Sanj made a boat and it was hard to make it float, but Prithul’s one held 19 blocks.
