Sec 1D & 1MM (Day 3): Food, Glorious Food!

Hello, Day 3! 

The girls went to the Science Centre to get to know more about Health & Nutrition, and they also carried out some experiments.

The students listening attentively as Ms Rose was going through her lecture slides.

For the first activity, the students were given 4 types of drinks. They were supposed to predict the amount of glucose in each drink before carrying out their experiment. Each group was given a bottle of glucose test strips, and they were supposed to compare the colour of the strip to the colour chart in order to record the actual readings. 

Here are some students analyzing their results.

For the next activity, students were tasked to record the time taken for the fluid to flow out of 2 different cups. This experiment is related to the blood flow in the human body, where the straw represents our blood vessels. 



Now for some fun! In their groups, the girls made Muesli Cups - not only were they healthy, they tasted yummy too!

Carefully melting the butter to prevent it from burning.


Filling and pressing the Muesli Cups into the cupcake liners.

Here's the end product! Don't they look great?

After heading back to school for lunch, the girls carried on with Values in Action (VIA), where they completed their pledges and baked Honey Joys in our school's kitchens.

One of our teachers explaining the steps in making Honey Joys.

Time to start! Step 1: Melting the butter, sugar and honey.

Good teamwork, girls!

Step 2: Pouring in the melted ingredients and mixing it with the cornflakes.

Step 3: Transferring the mixture into the cupcake liners.


Time to put them in the oven!


Here's some of the girls from 1D with their final product!

That marks the end of the Secondary 1 EFL journey. It has indeed been a memorable one. We look forward to seeing you next year! :)
