Program Themes
Edible Science *Most Popular!*
We dive into the kitchen to see what science lies within the foods we love to eat. Young scientists will make sciencey treats they can eat, and we make some liquid nitrogen ice cream for everyone. Warning: This program is delicious! Allergen advice on all products used in the workshop is provided to centres beforehand, and we do our best to to provide alternatives for children with certain food allergies, intolerances or aversions.
Slime
Are all slimes the same? No way! Come and discover the sticky, slimy and gross world of slime. All participants will have the chance to make and keep their own slimy creations.
Flight
Explore the forces that make planes, helicopters and rockets fly with this soaring science show. Students then make their own flying machine and blast off their own mini rockets. Includes 30-minute show and 30-minute activity.
