This year St Francis de Sales College entered six teams in The Australian National Titration Competition, with two teams successfully qualifying for the State Final held at UniSA. The team consisting of Jasmine Hobbs, Jessica Sachse and Melanie Vande Veerdonk progressed to the National Final. Jasmine, Jessica and Melanie each earned a gold medal for individually having a very low percentage error in their analysis. As a team, their collective results ranked them in 8th position nationally, from a total of 162 teams.
The Australian National Titration Competition has been conducted throughout Australia since 1984. Teams complete a chemical procedure and are judged on the accuracy with which each member determines the amount of substance present in an unknown sample.
Intergenerational playgroups are truly something special — an experience that enriches the lives of both the young and the older members of our community. These playgroups are more than just a space for children to play; they are a vital platform for different generations to come together, share wisdom, and build meaningful relationships.
