Dancing Raisins

Initially some of the raisins sunk to the bottom.

Air pockets on the surface of the raisins attracted the carbon dioxide gas in the liquid, which covered the surface of the raisins.

When the bubbles stuck to the rough surface of the raisins, they became buoyant and rose to the surface.

The carbon dioxide bubbles popped at the top and the raisins' density changed again. That’s why they sunk again. 

 After leaving them in the soda overnight, these raisins became suspended in the middle of the liquid.

Look at the difference in size.  The first one is the dried raisin.  The second one is what it looked like after sitting in the liquid overnight.

When we looked at each one under the microscope we could see all the air pockets in the first one.  The second one was a little smoother and the air pockets had gone.

Senior School Spelling Bee

After weeks of learning and revising lists of new and interesting words, 3 students from each class participated in Leabank's first ever Spelling Bee.  Tension was high, nerves were frayed...and that was just Mrs Kung!  Imagine how the competitors were feeling.  Everyone did a superb job but in the end Marri-Anne, Ivarnika and TJ took out first place in each of their divisions.  A job well done team.  You are all super⭐'s!!!
