Trip to Sungei Buloh (1E1 group 5)

Hello. :D
It was rather fun today, at Sungei Buloh, as we all worked as a team and at times, applied some knowledge of Science onto the activities we had to do, for example at one point we had to use the pail to collect samples of the water. Boon Keat and Karthik held on to the end of the string, and one of us threw the pail down, so that it is able to overturn and collect the water.

Another group, gave us a clever suggestion too; hold the string tightly, and run across. The pail is bound to collect some sample of water. While we walked to the next station, we too found many other animals along the way. Moniter lizards, squirrels, and two monkey-look-alike animals, sitting on the tree carressing each other.

While Karthik and Boonkeat took videos of Marcus and Weiming taking the pH of the water, conductivity of the water and the temperature of the air, we racked our brains and tried to make the best out of it. The two stations were soon completed in no time, and we had to go back to the entrance once more, take a rest and return to school.

As we were walking back, we chatted and had fun, talking about many different things. The teachers were kind enough to help us remove the sensors off our back (incase it got lost or broken). We were allowed to buy ice-creams, and snacks and eat it befoe we board our bus. Groups clattered all around, and as there were other schools there at the same time, it was rather squeezy.

We returned to school soon, had another short break and listened to instructions regarding about the project. We were dismissed and we all left happily.
We enjoyed our day today, at Sungei Buloh.

Here are some videos, took by our camera man(s).
(We apologize, if the quality is not at it's best.)
