Science Week

Destination Moon

The theme for Science Week this year (10-18 August) is Destination Moon: more missions, more science.

'This theme is a way for teachers and their students to discover past missions to the Moon and space programs that have solved some of the seemingly unsolvable problems—and current and future space programs, operations and missions. Many of these use big picture thinking in science to solve problems and technology, engineering and mathematics to design new solutions. This will help forge our future paths in the areas of space operations, space science, Earth observations, positioning systems and communications.' (https://www.scienceweek.net.au/schools/)

Students will be offered the opportunity to investigate the people, space agencies, universities and science organisations that are all delivering solutions in space science, within their respective classrooms.  In addition, students will be participating in a forensic science incursion on Tuesday 13 August. 

 

It's going to be a fun week!
