Year 8 Agriculture continue to maintain their own vegetable garden with hopes of bountiful harvests of carrots, snow peas, lettuce and radish by the end of term. Year 8 Science have been incredibly busy completing both their end of year exams in addition to VALID8 testing within the first four weeks. Now, Year 8 will begin their investigation into resource management with a focus on the advantages and limitations of renewable and non-renewable resources.
