Senior Science Update
This year in Year 9 Science we are running two new subjects. These are STEM in action and Solve the mystery. Throughout the year we will be giving parents an insight into the students learning.

So far our students have collected evidence from the crime scene and completed two practical investigations on the forces of falling objects and fibre analysis. Along the way they have learnt about gravity, forces, motion, types of chemical reactions and combustion.

In Year 10, there are 6 different sciences on offer and many have undergone practical investigations already this year. From DNA extractions to blood splatter analysis, our students are given lots of students to explore the world of science.

In Year 11 and 12, the students have well and truly settled into the routine of study, preparation for SAC’s and experimentation. We currently run lunchtime sessions for students to attend if they wish to seek extra help and so far we have seen a steady stream of students take on this opportunity.

Our students have worked hard this Term and we congratulate both our teaching staff and our students for their dedication to Science.

Finally, we are proud to announce that Amy H (10C) has received a scholarship to attend Zoos Victoria’s 2022 Youth Leadership program. We look forward to hearing from Amy throughout the year as she embarks on this learning journey.
