St Paul's Year 11 Chemistry class travelled to Singleton on Thursday to visit Dyno Nobel, a chemistry lab that researches and develops explosives. Students learned about the chemical processes involved, witnessed scientists at work in the lab and shared lunch with the staff. The excursion finished with a blast demonstration where students could safely see the impressive impact of a relatively small explosion on thick steel plates.
Thanks to Mr Brendan Goswell and Ms Bethany Rennes for accompanying the students.
