As part of the Stage 4 Geography unit Water in the World, our Year 8 students spent the day at Sydney Olympic Park learning about sustainable water management practices.
Students observed, recorded and collected data on how Sydney Olympic Park's sustainable water practices provides water for endangered frog species, water birds, ornamental fountains, irrigation for parklands and flushing toilets in an 80,000 seat stadium.
They also conducted water testing, field sketches, annotated photographs and interpreted Aboriginal season charts.

๐ฌ๐งฑ Learning in action! Our Year 7 Science students recently brought the world of simple machines to life using LEGOยฎ Technic! Working collaboratively, students explored levers, pulleys, gears and wheel-and-axle systems as they designed, built and tested their own working models. The classroom was buzzing with curiosity, teamwork and creative problem-solving as scientific concepts came to life through hands-on learning. Activities like these encourage our students to think critically, ask questions and develop practical STEM skills while discovering how science influences the world around them. It was fantastic to see their enthusiasm, persistence and collaboration throughout the lesson. Well done, Year 7! ๐๐ #NagleCollege #ScienceEducation #STEM
