On Friday, 28th April, the year 5 and 6 students participated in an engaging “Heat and Energy Workshop” incursion. Throughout the workshop the students explored the properties of heat and other energies in a fun way. They were able to produce useful heat energy through friction, motion, electrically and chemically. They also explored transferring heat through conduction.  The students enjoyed the opportunity to explore the amazing ways in which heat can generate change!

  

On Thursday, 4th May, the level fortunate to have a visit from Fr. John who shared his knowledge of chemical science. He showed the students the periodic table of elements and discussed how and why changes occur to matter in its different states.

The students from 5/6R presented their new knowledge to the school community at assembly this afternoon!
