Science Week

August 14-18 

Students will be attending an incursion on Monday 14th August

Description/Educative Purpose:

On Monday August 14th, students in Years P-9 will participate in the Sceintwits comedy show in the College Gym. Science! Comedy! Chaos!  Hop, skip or jump into the Scientwits disastrous science lab for… MORE Wrong Experiments! There will be science, there will be mess and sadly, for poor Scientist Sam, absolutely nothing will go to plan thanks to Captain Chaos! This one-of-a-kind, high-energy and interactive sketch comedy show for kids is not to be missed. Captain Chaos is back as Scientist Sam’s assistant, however without any formal training and an appalling lack of attention to detail, he 'accidentally' derails Sam’s intended science lesson, substituting Scientist Sam’s mundane experiments for bigger, better, messier and far more exciting versions. Welcome to MORE Wrong Experiments! Suitable for ages 4-4,000,000, get ready to be blown away... not literally of course!
