How Does It Move?

Hone in on your engineering skills whilst having a lot of fun! By observing gravity and friction devise mechanisms and technical actions to solve the problem of making the marble or vehicle follow a particular track.  Does it need more speed?  How could you make the object turn in a different direction?  What kinds of…

Innovation Fueled Lunch Breaks

This year for National Science Week our senior students and staff will run engaging and age-appropriate innovative STEM activities with our R-9 students across two 45-minute lunch breaks. Stations will be set up in our biology lab and will showcase current innovation in the areas of, alternative energy and fuel cells, food sources, connecting our…

ExBEERimental Science

ExBEERimental Science is a beer-tasting, science-sipping event connecting the public with the amazing science behind the brews they love! This year, three Australian breweries will craft both a control and an experimental beer. These beers will be exactly the same except for one experimental difference, which will highlight the incredible sensory shifts that science can…

‘Pour’ Intelligence: Building a Teachable Machine for Measuring Liquids

Measuring liquids can be a mL-ticulous task, it’s always like “Is it a mL bit more or a mL bit less”. While flow meters and level sensors are commonly used in STEM industries such as chemical processing, pharmaceuticals, and water treatment they may be a ‘pour’ decision. Make room… for teachable machines, a current application of AI, which…

Crystal-A-Con

Everyone loves crystals. From snowflakes to diamonds to sugar, we see crystals everyday and we love them for being beautiful, shiny and symmetrical. Crystals are extra special to scientists because they are made up of repeating patterns of atoms and molecules. These patterns allow scientists to use a special technique called ‘crystallography’ to work out…
