SCIENCE DAY 12 January 2023

Science Day theme was 'Seeing is Believing'. Students from across the school either designed their own lab coats or dressed up as their favourite scientists. It was fantastic to see so many children inspired by scientists from around the world, past and present, and understanding their contributions to science.

In the morning, students were informed that Mr Higgins' model boat had gone missing two days prior and that they must solve the 'Who Done It' crime by the end of the day. They were given clues, which included handwriting samples, fingerprints, crime scene photos, and the schedules of the four teacher suspects to study and find the culprit.

Keeping within the forensic theme, students also learnt how to create magic ink to reveal hidden messages or fingerprints.

I dressed up as Dr. Emmett Brown from the film 'Back to the Future'. I liked the experiment we did to find out who stole the model. I also liked the competition with the lab coats because people showed creativity and used their imagination to create their costume. This year, I was a Science Ambassador and I enjoyed going to meetings and helping create the day for the school.
