Acid Rain Video
One of our teachers has been looking for a video about acid rain. At her previous school, they had it on Clickview and she thinks it was called Acid Assault. She has been searching in vain on Youtube but only finds videos of people who have been assaulted with acid - not quite what she was after! Sh...

Re: GHS and Labels
I have set up my own templates using D-Gen on chemwatch to fit the small dropper bottles, which allows me to insert a colour dot, so when I print them up I have nothing more to do to them. Hi Sunray. I read one of your previous posts and looked at the D-Gen on Chemwatch. Thank you for your guidance...

Re: SAVE THE DATES: 27th & 28th November 2014
Great to hear, Narelle. Do you know the rough cost? I'd like to get in early so I can find out if I can come.

So you'll be getting a new prep room? Hope they listen to you so you get what you need. Make sure there is plenty of storage.

Grey PVC Trays
I am trying to replace some damaged trays. The measure approx 320x260x50mm and are grey in colour with a ribbed base. The only ones I've found available are deeper, white in colour (but I guess not for long in this place) and are a bit pricey @$34 each. The ones I have are very durable and sturdy an...

Re: Laboratory Skills Course
Hi Rae For 2014 the cost is about $410 per semester. The fees are set to rise next year and the rumour is "significantly". The teacher I spoke to said they could go up to $1000 per semester. For me, with only two years experience, I think it will be worth the money, so will have to start s...

Re: Laboratory Skills Course
The Cert III is also running at Campbelltown TAFE this year, with a mid year intake in Term 3, Monday nights from 5.30 to 9.30pm - not sure why the hours are longer than Blacktown, maybe we're a bit slower in these parts? :crazy: I was speaking to the TAFE teacher last week and it all looks okay for...

How long do you store agar plates?
Just wondering how long you keep agar plates? i.e. how long before they are required do you make them up? I remember making them and storing them in the fridge but can't remember how long before the prac.
Thanks

Re: Laboratory Safety Signs
Thanks Lyn, that sounds really useful. It can be difficult finding decent signs on the net. Where I am, the previous labby put the warning sign in with the laser, I guess that way the teacher will always remember to put it up

I agree with you, Jazz. Schools are still workplaces and Workcover is the over ruling authority.

Re: help
My understanding is that you need to have a register of all hazardous substances, regardless of quantity. Can you bring it up with your health and safety committee? You should have a committee in your workplace. In lieu of that, it needs to go to the principal. I'd look on the Workcover website and ...

How big was that one, Noona? I notice the catalogue doesn't mention that it needs to be put together, that could have been a nasty surprise!
