States of Matter

This week, Room 11 have been looking at the 3 main states of matter. We are learning about it so that when we conduct our experiments, we are able to explain the processes and chemical reactions that occur. It's been great new learning for most of us.

Today, we worked in groups to identify the properties of the 3 states of matter of SOLIDS, LIQUIDS AND GAS. The properties refer to the SHAPE, VOLUME, ARRANGEMENTS and INTERACTION of particles in matter.

Here are some photos of our learning.

Cycle Safety Programme

In Week 6 - the Senior Syndicate participated in a cycle safety programme. The students learnt to put on the helmet the right way, identified safety procedures about cycling and enjoyed riding around the block. Each class were allocated 5 blocks = One day and a half for cycling.

Senior School CAMP!

Last week, GTS Senior school was out on Camp. We spent a whole week at KAWAU ISLAND at Camp Bentzon. The students got to experience activities such as Abseiling, Rock Climbing, Sailing, Kayaking and Orienteering.
On Thursday, the whole school went on a 3-4 hour bush-walk into the woods. It was tiring, exhausting but breath-taking at the same time.
