2023 Annual Prep Classes' Professor Jellybean Incursion Wrap & Photos | Light Energy & Concept Of Change
2023 Annual Prep Classes' Professor Jellybean Incursion Wrap & Photos | Light Energy & Concept Of Change
Our annual Professor Jellybean incursion saw Canterbury's Prep students discover the flow of light energy, and how sunlight brings life to living things, as part of their 'Colour Your World' module.
They mixed some colourful processed seaweed solution to discover a chemical change and make 'worms' - learning how matter can change its observable properties.
Our young students also made a 'rainbow seed bomb' using clay, soil and some mixed seeds.
They will bring these home to plant and reveal the colourful blooms of insect-attracting flowers waiting inside.
Who doesn't love nature and science???

All players developed their basketball skills, fitness and understanding of the game, while making lasting memories.

Last Friday's Year 11 Senior Visual Art Stimulus Excursion | Logan Art Gallery, Queensland Art Gallery & Gallery of Modern Art (GoMA)
Last Friday's Year 11 Senior Visual Art Stimulus Excursion | Logan Art Gallery, Queensland Art Gallery & Gallery of Modern Art (GoMA)
This Term, our Year 11 Visual Arts students are undertaking Unit 3: Art As Knowledge as one of their subjects.
As part of their IA1 Investigation, students must be exposed to an authentic experience and a variety of stimuli.
So last Friday, our Year 11 Visual Art students visited the Logan Art Gallery, Queensland Art Gallery and Gallery of Modern Art (GoMA) to view the various exhibitions on display.
Our students first visited the local Logan Art Gallery to view the annual Artwaves exhibition.
This exhibition showcases works from talented high school students, and aims to demonstrate the wealth of imagination and creativity present in our Logan region.
Our students then travelled over to South Bank to visit the Queensland Art Gallery and Gallery of Modern Art (GoMA), where they were able to view exhibitions that showcased contemporary and traditional works from Australian and international artists.
These exhibitions provided a perfect opportunity for our students to view the artworks in person, and hopefully inspire them as they prepare for the production of their own pieces.
