Physicists receive Silver Award for their application of knowledge to a real-life scenario

students with certificates

Prakriti in Year 12 explains more: 

students carrying out experiment"This was an amazing opportunity to practice writing a formal scientific paper on a specific topic. It allowed us to apply our physics knowledge to a real-life scenario and work in a team of peers in a professional setting. The experiment this year involved making an astro blaster from a football and tennis ball and gathering data to analyse. Overall, we achieved a Silver Award – a celebratory achievement!"

The dedication of this group of Year 12 Physicists was huge! They launched their astro blasters so many times in and out of school to gather lots of data to analyse. A truly professional group. Well done indeed!
