This Saturday...

...it's the 'start of something new' as we explore a brand new activity. We're 'breaking free' from the usual, but it's bound to be both educational and fun as 'we're all in this together'! 'What time is it' you ask? Well, it's time to get 'fabulous' with science and 'bop to the top' to win fun prizes!

See you this Saturday and Seniors, let us know if you're coming!

Troop 4: Meeting 13

Troop Leaders: Qila, Azni, Ash, Daniel

Guest Facilitators: Iqbal

Senior Science Scouts: Khavishini, Darshwini, Desmond, Ummeesh, Jer Yeu

Guest facilitator Iqbal is back with a great activity; the 'Propellosaurus'! No, it's not a dinosaur but a wind-propelled vehicle that looks like one. Science Scouts learned about electric circuits and wind propulsion.

Firstly, Science Scouts gathered in groups to listen to Iqbal's introduction to the science behind the 'Propellosaurus'. Science Scouts then began assembling their machines with help from the Troop Leaders and the Senior Science Scouts.









The Science Scouts then proceeded to test their assembled machines. Tweaking and refining is needed to ensure optimal speed and acceleration!















Completed machines were then decorated and then tested. Points were awarded for successful runs!
