Day 3: We Won Third Place!!!!

Today there was an exhibition where all the physics teams displayed and demonstrated their safes to the general Israeli public. There was a lot of general interest in The Study School's safe! Many people asked for an explanation of how the safe worked.

After the exhibition, there was the award ceremony and we are proud to announce that The Study placed third out of all the teams!!!!! Afterwards we went and played in the Weizmann Physics Park (pictures below!!!).

Now we are going to the beach in Tel Aviv for a couple of hours before getting onto our flight back to Montreal. Yay Study School!!!
