We're Making Slime!!

Mrs. Brunone's grade 9 and 10 classes made slime to investigate polymerization reactions.




The grade 10 class learned about synthesis reactions and the law of conservation of mass

The grade 9 classes studied molecular compounds names and
formulas.

Physics Competition

On March 25th, Adam N, Allie K, Lorenzo P and Catherine P traveled to the Perimeter Institute of Theoretical Physics in Waterloo to complete the first every Ontario Wide Physics Competition.  The day consisted of our team engaging in 6 different 'Physics Fights' which lasted an hour each against schools from all across Ontario.  When the day was done our team managed to achieve Third Place in a very competitive field.  Way to go Raiders!
