PROJECT OBJECTIVE #1
A collaboration between Woodgrove Secondary School Science Department, Craft & Technology; and Temasek Polytechnic to design and construct a solar-powered water fountain
PROJECT OBJECTIVE #2
Creation of a learning corner for the teaching and learning of solar energy
We are going to MOE Excel Fest 2010
Attend our sharing sesson at Suntec Room 209 on 6 March at 3.30 pm!!!

TO DO LIST:
1. calculate the number of modules & batteries needed (JASMINE SOO & CINNY)
2. things to consider when doing the structure:
-the solar panel should be tilt how many degrees? 5 to 15 degrees
-what kind of solar cell to use?
-materials used for structure?
3. go to Sim Lim tower -> to source for a small pump & motor for our prototype
4. do up the prototype scale, [1:10]
(MR KUMAR, MR FLAVIAN, LEON & JASMINE CHEN)
5. what other things to add? -pump? -lights? -decorations?
6. internet research on how a typical water pump look like
7. light intensity -> plot graph for tilting (when school reopens) (EVERYBODY, TAKE TURNS)
