Grade 2 students explore the mysteries of a scientific adventure.

Approaching knowledge through hands-on experiences enables students to gain a thorough understanding of natural laws, while also developing essential skills such as observation, analysis, and problem-solving from an early age.

On the afternoon of March 26, the “Sci-Adventure” journey—an interdisciplinary experiential activity combining Science and Personal Development Skills (PDS)—officially took place with the participation of Grade 2 students from both the Cambridge International program and the Global Citizen Bilingual program. Designed as a series of interactive stations, the program created a dynamic exploration space where academic theories were transformed into engaging, accessible, and visually stimulating experiences.

At the event, these young scientists immersed themselves in a “universe of knowledge” through four exciting stations. They explored the separation of oil, food coloring, and water in the “Lava Lamp” experiment, discovered the fascinating force of static electricity at the “Magic Carpet,” traveled back in time to learn about fossils through “Cretaceous Imprints,” and observed the remarkable process of water transport in plant stems in the “Magical Flowers” activity.

Holding their activity cards, the young learners eagerly took on challenges at each station. After watching teachers demonstrate scientific phenomena through model experiments, students quickly applied the steps themselves and completed their own creations. Expressions of amazement and excitement spread throughout the room as they realized just how familiar and fascinating science can be.

During the journey, Phạm Ngọc Tú Anh (2G2) could not hide her surprise at the “Magic Carpet” station, enthusiastically sharing her amazement at how balloons could seemingly “attract” small pieces of paper. Meanwhile, Lương Minh Khôi (2C1) was captivated by the “Magical Flowers” station, where he conducted an experiment for the first time and witnessed flower petals change into vibrant colors right before his eyes.

Ms. Trần Lệ Xuân, Head of the Grade 2 International Team, shared: “Our greatest goal is to help students understand that science is vividly present in everyday life. Drawing on thorough research from international scientific resources, our teachers created a comprehensive learning experience, dedicating months of effort from conceptualization to the meticulous preparation of experimental materials. Despite certain operational challenges, the students’ enthusiasm and joy in learning are the greatest success and happiness for us as educators.”

Greenfield School believes that this scientific adventure has provided meaningful and joyful learning moments, igniting a passion for discovery and nurturing essential qualities for future global citizens. Parents are invited to look back on the memorable highlights of this exciting journey with their children.
