Year 4 Science Expo

During science week year four students from our school will be presenting different science experiments to the school.  They will be performing the experiment and explaining the science behind it.  Each group will present their science to the lower school on one day and then to the rest of the school another day.

St. Patrick’s School Science Expo

Students will explore different scientific concepts in a variety of hands on rotational activities lead by our educators. The day will begin with a whole school demonstration Following the NSW Science and Technology Curriculum a focus on Working Scientifically and Design and Production will underpin each station. The stations will encompass the outcomes of Living World,…

Cheese Making at Carinya

Students from Prep to Year 9 will be involved in making different types of cheeses. Some of the cheese will need to mature beyond National Science Week, but what an exciting mix of food and chemistry.

Edith Cowan University scientists invite you to join their interactive science demonstrations and experiments, broadcasting live from the ECU Science SuperLabs. …

Croydon Hills Primary School Science Week

Our original plan for National Science Week had to change due to remote learning with materials that most households would have in their pantry.  As we also have around 100 students attending school onsite, these students will be participating in the experiments at school. 

Taminmin College Science Week

This event has had to be modified from a whole school expo to individual class activities due to restrictions surrounding Covid-19.  Students from both agriculture and science classes will undertake projects related to food production.  These may include: Raising quails: Year 10 agriculture students will hatch and raise quails. They will demonstrate how these animals…

AstroBeer Launch

A question we asked ourselves over a couple of beers at the BrewPub was, if we were going to go to space then could we brew beer? To make beer we need yeast, so could yeast ever survive in space? Well, we teamed up with Canberra-based aerospace company SuperSky Engineering to find out. With two…
