Lunch Time Food, Fire and Fear!
Centralian Middle School will celebrate National Science Week by conducting fun experiments for students during lunch time. We will make fireproof paper, rainbow lemonade, large-scale elephant toothpaste, test physics with a bowling ball to the face and have a go at eating insects. On Monday, students will make pictures on paper and then soak it…
FOREVER Exhibition at MOD.
Beginnings, endings & everything in between. In this exhibition, experience time in new ways. Traverse past, present and future by navigating the blurred lines between these states of being.

Designing the Built Environment at the Newcastle Museum
Step into the Arckit Design Studio! Using a design thinking process and the innovative Arckit architecture kit students will explore sustainability within the context of architecture. Working in small groups, participants will be recruited by a top Architecture firm to design, build and present their solution to a sustainability design challenge. The hands-on sessions help…
Burning lessons from Country: ancient and new understanding of bushfires
To reduce the frequency and impact of bushfires, we need better understanding of their behaviour and how we can manage it. We can improve our understanding by studying wildfires, by conducting careful experiments, and by learning from Indigenous peoples who have long used fire to care for Country. Join two scientists exploring these approaches, live…
Science Fair – Moranbah State High School
At the science fair, you will move through different activity stations where you can try experiments yourself. First, at the Microscope Station, you’ll look at tiny things like plant cells, crystals, or fabric fibers through a microscope to see details you can’t see with your eyes alone. Next, at the Spinning Colour Wheel station, you’ll…
