U of W Engineering visits Brennan Science

The Engineering department at the University of Windsor once again engaged our students with knowledge and hands on activities.
Today's activity was power generation through a wind turbine (renewable energy).

Brennan Science & Technology

Two teams represented our Brennan Cardinals in the Skills Ontario Boat Race Competition.

Our theme was the connection between the explorations that took place in the past (boats and oceans), and those that will lead to our future - among the stars. 

We know: 

that one day our solar system and planet will no longer exist, and so, for our descendants to survive, we must eventually live beyond the confines of our home planet; we must learn to thrive responsibly amongst the stars.

These fine young people continued their journey of discovery - building boats out of cardboard, as they reinforce the fact that theory and practice are occasionally at odds with one another. 

In other words, fun = education.

How much weight will it take to sink this fine boat? 

Will they make it to the opposite side of the pool?

 Theory & reality; if you build it, they will float - or is that baseball?

How much time can these boats stay afloat?  

Brennan Science and technology: proud of our cards, past, present and future!

Brennan Science and Math Departments receive Leadership Award

Brennan Science and Math Departments are recognized by Gizmos

Perhaps a motley crew? Perhaps a fun loving group of teachers who love learning, exploring and teaching? What is certain, is that these Brennan teachers (as all Brennan teachers do) love to engage students as stakeholders, in subjects that by their very nature, engage the imagination, while calling forth excellence.

"Excellence is a habit" - Aristotle.

University of Windsor's Dr. Rehse visits Brennan Physics

Dr. Rehse, Head of Physics at the University of Windsor engages our Grade 11 Physics students about Physics:

what is physics

how does physics help

why is it important to study physics in high school

what can physics do for your future

Grade 9 are celebrated at Brennan

The Physics club helped on Grade 9 day here at Brennan High school. Embracing colour as Electromagnetic Waves of varying wavelengths, our grade 9 teams stopped for a photo op as Science enthusiasts did back flips while encourage the pursuit of excellence at F. J Brennan Catholic High School.
