RFS CADETS AT TRAINING CAMP FOR STATE CHAMPIONSHIPS Mamre Cadet Rural Fire Brigade commenced training for the NSW RFS State Championships last month. The team of students from Years 7, 8 and 9 spent two days in a training camp at Castlereagh where they developed their teamwork, problem solving and communication skills, as well as completing a range of challenging scenarios using fire tankers and other firefighting equipment. They also visited the RFS District Fire Control Centre where they were issued with their team uniforms. #mamrelearning The NSW RFS State Championships will be held in Wollongong from 9-11 September.

What better way to understand the impact of infectious and non-infectious diseases on the body than to visit the UNSW Museum of Human Diseases? An amazing learning opportunity for our year 12 Biology class. #mamrelearning

Some National Science Week activities related to glass. Year 7 valued the transparency of glass when they made lava lamps, year 11 Chemistry reflected on the glasslike behaviour of molten sugar crystals as the particles were rearranged into an amorphous solid, becoming brittle when cooled and allowing light to pass through. Year 12 learned how to cut through glass and reshape hot glass while making personalised glass stirring rods. With the random particle arrangements glass does not conduct heat as easily as metal and so whilst one end was hot the other end remained cold enough to handle. #mamrelearning

3M have been learning how to conduct chance experiments and graph the results using Skittles and Smarties. 3M used tally marks and column graphs to show their understanding of the frequency of certain colours in the packets. They were very excited to be able to eat their experiment at the end of the lesson. #mamrelearning
