Hi All, Today my HOD gave me a flyer about CaRob Computing Science Equipment Management System. It does location of all stock on hand and it appears to already have everything loaded so you just need to add location. It looks really good and easy to use I was wondering if anybody else is using this ...

My chem teacher is retiring in the near future (too near) and I am going to need all the help I can get.

Thanks guys

Hello everyone, Hope you all have your thinking caps on. I would like any information on a test for alcohols called "Lucas Test". My chem teacher can't find his recipe. I have looked in "The Laboratory" and done a search on internet, which tells you what the test is for but not h...

Hi all,

Just thought I'd let everyone know that I am the proud mummy of a spiny leaf insect named "peanut". Its the cutest little thing and I'm hanging out for more. It hatched from one of the 2 batches of eggs sent to me. Is anybody else's hatching yet?

I had a phone in my prep room until the refurb and since the start of the year I have been fighting to get it back. Before the refurb they told us to take everything out that we wanted to keep so I took the phone and then they said after the refurb that there was no phone in here! Talk about frustra...

Who knew that sand could be used as an abrasive for cleaning hard to get at glassware? Well I didn't know but I do now and it works beautifully. It only took 2 years to learn. :crazy: :? Think of all that glassware I can clean again and of all the lost time trying to get it clean before. :whistling2...

Hi everyone, I was just wondering if the schools that have had an upgrade got paper towel dispensers in their new classrooms. If so, did it come with the rest of the work or did the school pay for them. We did not get paper dispensers and frankly my classrooms look like a war zone when everybody is ...

Hi everyone It has been a busy start to the year and I still haven't got my rooms and prep room sorted out but there is a light at the end of the tunnel. I have just completed the move of all my chemicals to their new home and am now looking for the correct signage ( the old store was not quite up t...

I can't believe that at 8 am this morning 173 people had lost their lives because someone thought it would be FUN to light a fire. Our school is doing lunch bbqs all week and there was some talk of everyone buying knickers and toiletries and sending them to the red cross. I really am angry at the to...

Thanks for your input guys and Rosalie I've sent you my email address

Hi all, Got back to school last Tuesday bright and early to start moving everything into the labs and guess what....they weren't finished. I spent the first four days trying to find something constructive to do when in actual fact I couldn't do anything because they hadn't been signed over. Monday t...

Hi Wendy Thanks for thinking of me. Our classrooms and prep room are still in disarray and this week I have to clean out another classroom so next year. So next year I will hopefully have to sort out three classrooms and prep room during teaching time. But thats next year and I plan to have a good b...

Hi all, For anybody who is still working :boring: I need to know if we can get hold of any beetles that will eat flesh off bones. The last week of school and the students present the biology teacher with a rabbit head and then he presents it to me to clean. :? : So this is my one try and then I'm gi...

Hi all, I had the best time at the conference \:D/ \:D/ . It was my first time and I did Chem Basic, Physics and Electronics I LOVED these 3 and came away feeling like I wasn't a complete waste of space :cheesy: . I wasn't to keen on the data loggers and the repairs but still worthwhile. I have than...

Sorry Liz
On further clean up I found all my bases so I can't bring any rods.

Hi All,
I was just wondering if there are any labbies driving up to St Mary's along the Hume Highway thru Goulburn.
Maureen (Queanbeyan High) and I are car pooling and if anybody else wants to join us we are meeting at South Goulburn McDonalds at 6am on Thursday morning.
