Bromothymol blue
Hi everyone, Two of our bottles of bromothymol blue have turned an orange colour. It still works but we need some for a prac. test and I don't want them being confused by the colour. Any suggestions for getting it to turn blue again. They have only just been opened so shouldn't be off. I think we ma...

Thread for pulleys
Hi Everyone,
Need some help finding a supplier for some thread we use for pulleys and things. It is on a large red spool and what is left of the label says serafil. One of the teachers thought it might be sail makers thread. Any ideas?
Thanks

Re: having a very bad day.
Dear Sue, Sorry to hear you are having a rough time. We would certainly miss your input if you were to go to the office. We are having problems here as well. We are finally having some new classrooms built but while the building work is going on the only access to 2 blocks is via the stairs. Where I...

Re: Lab stools
Great idea Richard,
No stools or students in the lab. if we can just get rid of the teachers we'll be right.
Our stools certainly don't have back support. DET schools have a central place you get essential furniture from- don't know about Independent schools.
Good luck Ellice.

Dear Sue,
Thanks so much for the recipes. As I work in an all girls school things like that are very popular. It was really nice of you to take the time to send out the millions of copies to every one.

Hi Robyn, We have had this problem too and I have always blamed the students for contaminating it then we got a bottle that hadn't been used that had turned red. When I spoke to the supplier he said it should still work the same and it did but he couldn't explain the colour change. Weird hey! See if...

Re: Specium jars or what for crystal gardens?????
Hi Donna,
We get the kids to bring a small jar from home. Needs to be small so we don't use too much solution. Most bring one in as they don't get to do the experiment if they don't.

Sounds like smelly fridges are a part of the job! Luckily they are giving us a new fridge so I don't have to worry any more about getting rid of the smell. Lada that must have been so disgusting! At least we could move the fridge outside and get the smell away. Not being able to find what was making...

This caused the principal great concern as ultimately she was responsible for getting those chickens to safety if there was a fire. She never comes up to science so I c...

Hope you have a great lunch.
The SASS staff here got all excited as in the weeks event sheet it said there was a SASS morning tea on Monday. We all turned up but it was an error and was just a meeting letting us know there might be some changes next term.
Oh well you can only live in hope!
