There is always a buzz around Mullaloo Heights when it is Science Week! Our students (aka. little professors) have been enthusiastically entering the lab this week, keen to slip on a lab coat, take hold of a magnifying glass and observe a collection of shark jaws and artefacts including some framed prehistoric shark teeth, that are dated back many millions of years. We have Mr. Nancarrow to thank for the loan of these prize possessions.

Students of all ages have been busy completing their science quizzes as homework this week.

The prize in each of the age categories was a little book of science experiments to add to their classroom library. Congratulations to the classes who submitted the highest percentage of quizzes.

Senior Quiz Yr 5/6 winners - Room 12

Middle Years Yr 2-4 winners - Room 9

Junior Quiz PP - Yr1 winners - Room 8

The overall winners get to witness an explosive experiment involving Coke and Mentos after our incursion. That was the only class who brought back 100% of the quizzes… the very keen professors in Mrs Davidson's class. Well done Room 8!

As the Grand Finale to the MHPS Science Week, the students at Mullalloo Heights have a local Marine Biologist and Shark Conservationist coming to share her knowledge and give an engaging presentation.

Parents are welcome to have a look at the displays in the Science lab on our open night coming up on Wednesday, 24th August.
