☕Tomorrow morning, drop-off comes with a bonus ☕

La La Latte Co. is setting up at the Blackwood Primary School main school entry from 8am, which means your day could start with something considerably better than whatever is sitting in your travel mug right now. What a way to finish off the week!

Pull in, place your order, and take a moment before the rest of the day kicks in.

Water moving through sand and gravel, slowly, in front of you. That was the view for our Stage 1 Earth and Environmental Sciences students last week at Flinders University, where two PhD students led a hands-on groundwater hydrology investigation.

Working with a physical groundwater model, students tested the factors that change how groundwater flows. They watched it move through different aquifers and saw first-hand what happens when water is extracted or contaminated. Concepts that can feel abstract on a page became something you could point at.

That learning now goes somewhere. Students will use it to design their own investigation into how modern agricultural practices affect groundwater systems, which is real scientific work on a question that matters across South Australia.

Thank you to the Flinders University team for opening their lab and their expertise to our students.
