Science Extension - Kaitlin, Joseph and Cole

The science class that Mrs Jentson and Mrs Bush organised for a few schools was  really fun. Some people might find science boring, but I found it really interesting. I've learnt that there are four chambers in your heart. The valves in your heart are like doors, but the blood only flows one way. The valves open and shut 80 times a minute. I thought the science class was awesome.

As Cole said, the science extension was the best I've ever been to. I have learnt so much in such a fun way. They showed you what they were doing and not with fake things- they were real. My favourite part was when they dissected the sheep heart. Did you know that all mammals have a four chamber heart? All reptiles have a three chamber heart, but the crocodile is the only reptile with a four chamber heart. All fish have a two chamber heart. I would love to go to another science extension class.

Two hearts.  One belonging to a horse the other a sheep.  I'm sure you can guess which belongs to what animal.
Kaitlin also enjoyed the day.  Well done.  Photos taken by Cole.
