Experiment

The Grade 11 Physics class carried out the research for their Internal Assessment (IA) projects after the exams. These are worth a large part of their final result and have to be planned, executed and evaluated by the students themselves. We had a wide range of subjects this time, from the effect of string tension on the performance of tennis racquets to

In our unit of inquiry ‘How the World Works’, G1 students have been enthusiastically engaged in our Scientist of the Week project, where each student presented a science experiment to their classmates. We delved into hands-on activities, exploring static electricity, experimenting with the interactions of acidic and basic ingredients, and exploring the properties of magnetic and non-magnetic items. The classroom

Grade 11 have been learning about the structure of atoms, including the effects of electron excitation. The colours in the image are produced as a result of electrons in metal ions becoming “excited” after taking on energy through a process called “absorption”. When the electrons lose energy again, they emit characteristic wavelengths of light and we can identify metals by
