Calling all curious young scientists! Join us for an action-packed hour of hands-on experiments designed for kids aged 7–10.
Over the hour, children will rotate through three exciting science stations:
⭐Pom Pom Launchers – Learn about physics by building your own launcher using simple craft supplies. Then test how far you can send your pom pom flying!
⭐Strawberry DNA Extraction – Discover the building blocks of life by extracting real DNA from strawberries.
⭐Chromatography Flowers – Reveal the hidden components of colour and the secrets of solubility while creating beautiful bouquets.

Located at the southern end of the Canberra Centre, we will be running 3 of these hour-long workshops:
⭐10–11am
⭐12–1pm
⭐2–3pm
