Year 9 Science -Investigating Earthquakes

Students completing the Community Sports Coach IDEA’s Program delivered a Multi-sports Gala Day for the Year 3 and 4 Students this week. This event was the culmination of learning how to plan and deliver sports clinics to meet the needs of a specific participant group. Senior School students developed their communication, teamwork, problem solving and leadership skills as they planned for and delivered the clinic. It was fantastic to see the students build rapport with the Year 3 & 4 students and deliver what was a successful sports clinic. Thank you to the Year 3 & 4 Students and Teachers for participating in this real-life learning activity for our Senior School students.

Year 9’s were ready to shake, rattle and roll. While investigating tectonic plates and earthquakes they were tasked with creating the tallest tower for the lowest price. Their structures were required to survive three different earthquakes. Afterwards discussions were had around the successful designs and how different regions create earthquake proof structures.
