Science Talent SearchOn Saturday 10th August our entrants in the state wide Science Talent Search competition presented their entries to the judges. I was judging other entries but later caught up with the relevant judges who were enthusiastic about our students and their work. Our students are to be congratulated for the organisational skills they demonstrated in preparing their entries. They now face a wait for the results! We expect the results early in Term 4.
We encourage our entrants to place their entries in our Whole School Science Show in Term 4 so that other students can see their work.

French CornerEn France, c’est les vacances!
We may be halfway through our third term, and shivering next to the heater at night, but in France at the moment it’s summer and schools are on holidays. What are some of the things we can say about summer?
J’aime aller à la plage.
Je nage. Je fais de la nata3on.
Il fait chaud.
Je porte un teeshirt et un short.
Je veux manger une glace.
J’aime regarder le cricket.
Combien de mots peux-tu trouver?

Claude Monet Exhibition – Le Jardin de Monet
Recently the Grade Five students visited the Claude Monet exhibition at the National Gallery of Victoria. In the exhibition there were a range of different impressionist artists represented but the majority of the art works were those of Monet. When we first got to the gallery we met Grace who taught us a little bit about Monet and his art. Then we took a look around while answering questions, in French, about the art. After looking at the paintings, we got to create our own art inspired by Monet. Two of my favourite paintings were “Gros Temps à Étretat” and I also really like his series of waterlily paintings “Les Nymphéas”. We learnt a lot about the ways different colours compliment each other and how a little bit of colour can influence the whole piece of art. We also saw how Monet would use the same scene but paint it multiple times, at different times of the day, to accentuate the changes in light and colour.

From: aprilathome <[email protected]>Subject: Fwd: Melbourne Public Forum: Open Data & The Liveable City
Date: 20 August 2013 12:09:27 PM AEST
Dear Geoff,
How can open data make Melbourne a more liveable city?
Changing the way research communities use data and digital tools can transform human discovery. Opening up data can enable us to do more with research data.
This public forum brings together government, entrepreneurs and academics to answer the question - how can a city improve its liveability by opening up the data it generates and consumes?
The Open Knowledge Foundation in partnership with the University of Melbourne and The Age newspaper are pleased to announce:
A public lecture and forum featuring Dr. Rufus Pollock(Open Knowledge Foundation), Prof. Geoff Taylor(physicist at the University of Melbourne with experience of Big Data at the CERN Laboratory) and David Austin (6x Entrepreneur including CEO of NASDAQ listed company) with Master of Ceremonies Marc Moncrief (Editor of 'the Crunch' at The Age newspaper).
This expert panel will discuss what makes Melbourne the "Most Livable City in the World" and how to ensure we remain the most livable city for years to come.
Is Open Data the key to Melbourne being the most livable city in the World?
Join us on Monday the 2nd of September at 6.45pm to learn how entrepreneurship, big data and the government are working together to further enhance this standing - and how you can get involved!
You can register for the event here.
This event is sponsored by the University of Melbourne (the Melbourne Accelerator Program / MAP & Information Technology Services / ITS) and The Age.
You can follow The Age's Data Journalism team via twitter@The_Cruch_Blog & follow UniMelb's Researchers as they take on Big Data via twitter @MelbITSResearch.
Please note this public lecture will be recorded and broadcast via YouTube.
