ExACT Excursion
Year 5 & 6
Our Year 5 & 6 ExACT students recently enjoyed an exciting and engaging day at Scitech, immersing themselves in a variety of hands-on science experiences. The day began with the Biosecurity Bonanza laboratory session, where students explored the importance of protecting Australia's unique environment from pests and diseases through interactive investigations.
Students were then treated to Spring Loaded in the Science Theatre, a high-energy presentation that brought scientific concepts to life through entertaining demonstrations and experiments. Following the show, students had time to explore Scitech's many interactive exhibits, allowing them to investigate areas of personal interest and curiosity.
After lunch, the highlight of the day was a visit to the Planetarium for To Space & Back, an inspiring journey through space that challenged students to identify how technology for space has impacted our everyday world and lives.
The excursion provided a wonderful opportunity for students to deepen their scientific understanding, think critically, and engage with STEM learning in a fun and memorable way. It was fantastic to see their enthusiasm, curiosity, and willingness to ask questions throughout the day.
