- Hovercraft
The Science Department organized science quizzes for S.1 and S.2 students. The students actively participated in the quiz.
STEM Day activity: Rocket Car Competition (S.1-3)
Most of the students have actively participated and have fun in the STEM activity. They have hands on experience in the rocket car construction, and applied what they have learnt in science lessons related to friction, air resistance and stream-lined objects. They have also learnt team work and problem solving skills during the process of designing & constructing the rocket car.
Active participation of students in the Rocket Car construction and competition
STEM Day activity (S.4):
1. Dot Dot Fire: Flight launcher model construction
2. Aerosim: Flight simulator
Most of the students have actively participated and have fun in the STEM activity. They have hands on experience in controlling the flight with the flight simulator or in aircraft construction. They have learnt how an aircraft fly and the basic forces involved. They have also learnt how to read flying chart and prepare flight plan.
S2 students built a hovercraft using Microbit during post-exam activities.
They worked together to assemble the components and tested their creation. The atmosphere was filled with excitement as they prepared for a thrilling racing competition, showcasing their engineering skills and creativity.
