At the workshop to be held during Science and Technology Week, we’ll be learning about Isaac Newton and the Law of Action and Reaction. After first chatting about examples of the Law of Action and Reaction taken from real life, we’ll learn the working principle of rockets, design a rocket that works using this principle, and observe how a rocket’s speed can change depending upon how much weight it carries.

The Chronicle of Sarajevo

Inspired by the great European masters, from Renaissance to Art Nouveau, Berber’s works exemplify the deep, opaque whites of his journeys through the fairy tale landscapes of Bosnia to the dark, macabre burrows of Srebrenica.

I walk over rocks hot as iron under the September sun. I can make out a few lines in the distance, and a few cracked rocks, but apart from those, not a single tree, not one plant
