The Luna Park “Physics Day” will take place between Tuesday the 3rd of March and Friday the 6th of March, date to be confirmed. The day allows students to go on all available rides, to collect acceleration and velocity for later analysis and to investigate the physics behind theme parks. An excellent and informative day for all Year 12 Physics students.  The entire day, including an RAAF fly by, is aimed specifically at  Area of Study 1 – Motion in one and two dimensions.

Year 12 Physics students have 1 week to carry out their EPI activity and to collect sufficient data.

Year 12 Physics students complete their EPI with a single period data analysis.  This task will be carried out during this final week of term, date of which to be confirmed.  The task will take the format of a series of analysis and evaluation questions that students are required to respond to in writing.

All Unit 3&4 students are required to sit the VCAA General achievement Test (GAT).  Contrary to general opinion, the GAT is a very important state wide assessment tool that, if completed to the best of your ability, has the capacity to improve your individual study scores and therefore your ATAR.

All Year 12 Physics students are advised to listen carefully and ask questions when you gather with your VCE Coordinator to discuss the GAT further.
