Spring Open House Physics Y11 and Y10 A Celebration of Science, Curiosity, and Innovation at EISB
Our Spring Open House on Friday, April 11th, was a vibrant celebration of student learning and creativity, showcasing the remarkable progress made across the semester by students in all year levels. The entire school came alive with projects, displays, and presentations that truly reflected the hard work, dedication, and growing expertise of our young learners.
Among the many highlights of the event were the innovative physics and computer science projects presented by our Year 10 and Year 11 students. It was a joy to witness how deeply they have engaged with their subjects and how creatively they have connected their academic learning with their personal interests and modern-day issues.
Imre amazed visitors with a robotic arm project that not only demonstrated mechanical control and precision but also served as the foundation for a wave generator model—a beautiful example of interdisciplinary thinking between physics and engineering. Sviat walked us through a fascinating model of nuclear fission and chain reactions using uranium-235, showing how a complex process can be clearly visualized and explained with passion and clarity.
Yan impressed the audience with his in-depth understanding of pulleys and forces, presenting real-world applications and simulations that demonstrated the mechanics behind everyday systems. Lukas, bridging computer science and physics, showed us his code-based simulations on parabolic motion and inclined plane experiments, comparing how friction varies depending on material surfaces—a perfect blend of theory, data, and digital modeling.
Ester delivered a compelling and timely presentation on energy conservation, transformation, and consumption. Her work touched on the importance of sustainability and the transition to renewable energy sources, a subject that speaks directly to the concerns of our generation and the future. Her clear explanation and confident delivery showed not only understanding but a genuine sense of purpose.
And then came a project that surprised and delighted us all—Dymtro’s unique take on energy conservation by stepping into the world of horror! With a scientific twist, he calculated how much blood a vampire would need to consume daily to meet their energy requirements, sparking smiles, laughs, and thoughtful questions. It was a brilliant way to show that science can live anywhere—even in the shadows.
These projects were not just science experiments—they were windows into the minds of students who are learning how to ask questions, explore answers, and tell stories through data, models, and imagination. It was incredibly rewarding as a teacher to see our students present with such confidence, creativity, and pride.
Our Spring Open House was a true reminder of the power of learning when it’s driven by curiosity and supported by community. Parents, teachers, and classmates came together to celebrate each other’s work, and the energy in the school was absolutely electric.
To all our students—thank you for your passion, effort, and brilliance. You are showing us every day that science is not just a subject, but a way of seeing the world.
