CNC’s talented mathematicians from Years 10–12 recently visited Curtin and Murdoch Universities, putting their problem-solving skills to the test while exploring future study pathways. From maths code-breaking and real-world Maths & Physics challenges to an Amazing Race and the unforgettable ping-pong ball estimation challenge, it was a day full of learning and fun.

A big thank you to our alumni Jack, April, Mitchell and Devan for sharing their experiences with the 38 students who attended alongside Mrs Allen and Mr Bateman.

Year 12 Human Biology students investigated DNA Recombinant Technology. They transferred a gene from Aequorea victoria; a bioluminescent jellyfish, into E. coli bacteria; causing them to glow bright green under UV light.

Using bacterial plasmid-based genetic transformation, students experienced how genetic information can be manipulated and gained further understanding of how DNA operates.
