Sad case for Amir, cut his finger halfway working with a blade. Had phobia for blades from that moment onwards. He even fainted as he was fasting i guess. He did a lot of work today, so good job. THUMBS UP FOR EVERYONE'S HARDWORK TODAY INCLUDING TEACHER ZUL!

32nd Stop: Green Chat

So today we had a green chat with the form 3 classes. We showed them slides about how to preserve and conserve our resources. And the effects if we don't take care of Mother Earth well. This is to put sense into them at a young age to start playing their part in saving our world from coming to an end. 
They were asked questions and Jasveerpal is checking on them

Amir walking to make sure they concentrate

Focus!

S.O.S.-Save our shelter

31st Stop: Testing on the real boat.

So throughout all those styrofoam cutting, panels testing and wire soldering, its finally ready to be judged. Our first real boat. We havent actually name it yet but lets just see how it works..


Soldering the wire that came off..





30th Stop: How will we spend the winning prize?

Welcome to our 30th pitstop. Yes now is the month of August, 15th august 2011. The question today is how to spend the winning money, which is RM5000. First we will divide the money into organizing field trips, activities and competitions. All to do with the main theme Go Green. Firstly our field trip is an adventure to Taman Negara, Kuala Lumpur. Taman Negara is a world sanctuary and Malaysia's heritage. Here we can learn about our ecosystem and in conjunction of the theme Go Green. The best part is we'll have fun at the same time!


The activities we shall organize and have is a recycling campaign. The money we gain will be used to buy 6 recycling bins with all different recycling materials. This means 2 sets as 1 set is 3 bins. Every Wednesday students will bring tupperware and buy the food from canteen and eat in their tupperware instead of wasting papers. As we all know, the less papers we waste, the more trees are saved!



We will also sell Tshirts which are designed and made from recycling products just like the jerseys created for the world famous FIFA world cup 2010. But before that, of course to make the Tshirts we need budgets.



Add in, we will use the money to buy motors and materials to be given to 8 teams. The missions and objectives of the students is to form a boat and explain in a presentation on how to move it based on what renewable energy? Example such as solar-powered, wind or hydro and others. If so the how is the method. Which is exactly the same concept as what we BP MyScience participators are doing now..



We will also have a competition named 'The cleanest class of the week'. At the end of each week the winners will be given prizes such as hampers. The money will be used for this. Lastly we will ensure most students carry a log book which records their daily activities and how they do their part in saving our planet. Log books will be revised every week for functionality purposes..
