Digestion Science Experiment

Today we did an experiment to finish off our topic on the human digestive system.  We used crackers, lemon juice, porridge and water to make chyme in the stomach. We then looked at how long our small intestine is (about 7 metres!) and Mrs Hanson squeezed the chyme through some cloths and mesh to show what our intestine does to extract the nutrients from our food and then the waste that is is created and passed on through our large intestine.





Genzui's Amazing Guitar Skills

Genzui has an amazing talent! He performed so well in front of the class that Mrs Hanson thinks he should enter in the talent quest next year! Well done Genzui.




Swimming

Today we had our first fun time in the pool for the summer! Look at Amir having so much fun.
