The focus of the session was&nbsp;mixing materials, a key concept in early science learning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To bring the idea to life, students rolled up their sleeves and created their very own playdough. Through this hands-on activity, they explored how different ingredients combine to form new materials, deepening their understanding of scientific processes in a fun and memorable way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The opportunity to learn in the Secondary Campus science laboratory helped students achieve an understanding of where real scientists work and was a highlight for the students. Not only did they gain valuable insights into science, but they also experienced the excitement of working in a new environment with specialist teachers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This collaboration between the Primary and Secondary Campuses is a wonderful example of how we make the most of our resources to enrich student learning. Year 2 returned inspired, proud of their creations, and eager to continue their scientific explorations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Margie Attard, Cara Brigham, Alison Di Ciaccio, Tina Nicotina and Brooke Panagopoulos<\/strong><br>Year 2 Teachers<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/11\/IMG_5991.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"19082\" src=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/11\/IMG_5991.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-19082\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/11\/IMG_5991.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/11\/IMG_5991-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/11\/IMG_5991-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/11\/IMG_5991-145x109.jpg 145w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/11\/IMG_5991-290x218.jpg 290w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/11\/IMG_5991-600x450.jpg 600w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/11\/IMG_5991-200x150.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/11\/IMG_5993.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" data-id=\"19083\" src=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/11\/IMG_5993-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-19083\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/11\/IMG_5993-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/11\/IMG_5993-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/11\/IMG_5993-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/11\/IMG_5993-145x109.jpg 145w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/11\/IMG_5993-290x218.jpg 290w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/11\/IMG_5993-600x450.jpg 600w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/11\/IMG_5993-200x150.jpg 200w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2025\/11\/IMG_5993.jpg 1082w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><br><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our Year 2 students recently enjoyed a special visit to the Secondary Campus, where they took part in an engaging science lesson led by our senior science teachers.
