Year 10 update

YEAR 10 SCIENCE 

In science, students are currently exploring a biology unit on genetics and inheritance. In class, students recently completed a practical experiment where they learned how to extract DNA from a strawberry using dishwashing liquid, salt, and rubbing alcohol. This activity demonstrated how DNA can be isolated using common household materials, helping students connect scientific theory with hands-on investigation.

YEAR 10 ART

In art, students are working on deconstructed faces inspired by Loui Jover. Using magazine cut outs students are working hard to visually represent each of the art elements including line, shape, colour, form, tone and texture. 

YEAR 10 ELECTRONICS

In electronics, students are learning about circuits and electrical currents. Using a combination of theoretical and practical components students are learning how to design a circuit, understand symbols and using a diode to allow electrical flow. 

I am grateful to the Year 10 staff for guiding these valuable learning experiences for our students.
