making light...

Today at enrich the chemistry group made a mini lightbulb out of:
A pencil lead.
A cut toilet paper roll.
A small glass jar.
Two pieces of wire one red one black with a piece of the same coloured rubber also on each there is a Aligator clip tied to the end with the rubber over it.
and a small pie dish.
In my group there was Tessa, Madeleine Natasha and don't forget Me!  One of the three groups actually lighted. Our one did go but instead the lead blew up.

Make a mini mural

Today at enrich we got into groups to make a mini mural that is got kiwiana, Southland or Invercargill icons in it. 
In my group was Natasha, Amy, Clara, Jemmimah & Me.
In one of the pictures we put John Keys head on a sheep, gum boots on a takahe and Amy drew a hole and in it we put a cut out of Henry the tuataras head. We also coloured in the background and the grass.  The grass took a long time to colour in.
It made a good plan for a mural
