Science Classes g iology classes study everything from tree leaves to protozoa or one-celled animals.

Often the work deals with dissecting frogs or fish which illus- trates how similar they are to hu- mans. Pupils learn to distinguish between the different species of seaweed and other minute plants. The different types of bacteria are also explained to the students and they are taught which are harm- ful, and which are of some help. Chemistry is the class of ex- periments. What is an acid? MRS.
