On Friday 31 October, students from across Junior School came together to celebrate Science Day, a hands-on event filled with curiosity and discovery. Working in multi-age groups, students collaborated to conduct a range of exciting investigations designed to explore scientific concepts.
Students investigated how light blends colours by creating colour wheels that appeared white when spun. They explored the properties of liquids through a colourful milk and detergent experiment, and discovered the effects of static electricity by making paper dancers move with the charge from a balloon. In addition to the investigations, students put their problem-solving skills to the test by building the tallest tower they could using only paddle pop sticks and pegs.
Throughout the day, students demonstrated outstanding curiosity and communication working in teams as they experimented and shared their findings. Science Day was a wonderful celebration of learning.
