St John's College
Practicals and experiments form part of the science subjects content/curriculum, this is to ensure that the learners are also exposed to the practical side of a subject. It gives them an idea of what they can anticipate in the working environment of that subject. Just like every content, there are practical exams set out to assess their understanding after every Practical session. This also helps the moderators in understanding where they can improve when it comes to delivering these experiments
Physics, Physical Sciences Grade 12↓
Chemistry, Physical Sciences Grade 12↓
Both facilitated by Mr Dlamini
Experiment 1: Electrical Circuit
Building an electric circuit and using a known resistor to determine the
internal resistance of the battery
Chemistry, Physical Sciences Grade 11↓
Experiments 2:Le Chatelier’s principle
To determine the effect of a change in concentration on chemical equilibrium
Facilitated by Mrs Mpangele↓
The Experiment: Rates of reaction and factors affecting rate
The aim of this experiment is to find out how different variables
affect the rate at which the reaction between Marble chips (CaCO ) and
Hydrochloric acid (HCl) takes place. There are many variables that
affect the rate of this reaction such as:
1. Concentration 2. Temperature 3. Catalyst 4. Surface area
more.....
Chemical reaction resulting in the formation of new chemical products.
Agricultural Sciences↓
Agricultural Sciences deals with production and processing of food and fibre. This include the technologies of soil cultivation, crop cultivation and harvesting, animal production, and the processing of plant and animal products for human consumption and use.
​
Plant watering, crop cultivation is as shown on the left picture.
LEFT & RIGHT
Cultivation of crops is to allow Agricultural Sciences learners have a picture of what they learn in class, and closely monitor the growth and changes that take place in plants. This enhances their understanding and maximizes interest into the subject.
MIDDLE
Chemistry: Estirification reactions
*Preparation and identification of Esters
*Determining the Chemical equations for the formation of products using structural formulas.

The environment club
The environmental Club was brought into life by the class of 2014, Ayapha Ralasi together with some of the RCL members of the time.
The aim was to have a programme that ensures cleanliness within the school, plantation of trees for Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide circulation facilitation. Its built under the word green which is focusing on taking of the environment and converse it for the next generations.
