The children in
the junior room are creating plasticine boats to see if they can build one to
float so well that it holds lots of pennies. One of the boats held 47 pennies
before the gravity force was greater than the buoyancy force.
At Olivet School we believe the best education happens when a child’s love for learning is fully engaged. Our teachers work with parents to prepare children for a fulfilling and useful life on earth that leads to life in heaven. We provide stimulating academics and meaningful social interactions combined with a caring atmosphere. For more information visit our website or contact us.

Grades 3 and 4 Learn About Boyancy
Yoan is using a Newton Scale to calculate buoyant force. The girls are patiently waiting their turn.
Yoan and Alisha are going to find out if their boats will float…with pennies in them!
