Science Week in Primary 1
In Primary 1, during Science Week, we planted lots
of vegetables and we learned lots about water and
sustainability. Marcus in Primary 1a shared a wonderful
presentation about Sir Issac Newton’s third law.We did
some follow up experiments to learn about action and
opposite reaction . We had a great Science week well done
boys and girls !

Where in the world? Daily life
Opening a little window on the international world and to awaken children’s
curiosity about different cultures, Ms. Cecilia Albo, Primary Science Leader,
has launched this new section, where you can read the clues and email us
with your answer. You could be the next person writing this section, next
month.
Where in the world?/ Guess which country this is!
• This country, is an island nation, consisting of more than 6800 islands
and is the eleventh most populous country in the world.
• In this country, it's polite to slurp while eating since it shows the chef
that you appreciate the food and at the same time, it enhances the
flavours.
• This country suffers more than 1500 earthquakes every year. Luckily,
the intensity of the earthquakes varies, most of them are just small
shakes, but some reach more than 8 on the Richter Scale.
• It has the highest number of vending machines in the world, which is
quite convenient as they are open 24/7.
• Traditionally in this country you bow instead of shaking hands. The
lower you bow, the more respect you show toward the other person.
• Most schools contemplate “cleaning” as part of their curriculum. Not
only do they save some money, but they also raise awareness with the
students: can you imagine something like that in our school?
