National Science Week


To celebrate National Science Week, the Year One scientists ventured over to the Senior School Science labs to experience what a real laboratory is like. They investigated some of the different equipment that is used to conduct experiments and explored the importance of safety when dealing with chemicals or heat. As the theme for National Science Week this year is "Making Waves- the Science of light", we investigated what we could do with light. We carefully set up the Newton light boxes and discovered that we could make light change colour when we placed coloured slides in front of the beam and that it could be refracted into different directions through the assistance of a shaped lens.
