Wow! What a week we had. It was wonderful to see the enthusiasm for Science amongst so many of our students!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Forensics<\/strong><\/h4>\n

On Tuesday and Wednesday lunchtimes, students volunteered to help solve the forensics case of \u201cWho Stole Beryl?\u201d (NB \u2013 Beryl is Mr Searl\u2019s very elegant dog). Students investigated a number of clues such as footprints, fingerprints, soil pH and type, information from a datalogger, and a series of notes on the whereabouts of various Science Staff Members on the day the crime was committed.<\/p>\n

Mr Searl was very thankful for the 75 students who provided forensic assistance in the case. Due to the students\u2019 clever analysis of the clues, it was discovered that Dr Guss had stolen Beryl. However, in his interview, he stated that it was a miscommunication, and he only took Beryl for some experiments into Static Electricity to see if dog hair would stand on-end better than human hair.<\/p>\n
