Hands-On Science

Hands-On Science has morphed into Hands-On at Otago, so we have begun a new page. Stay here to keep in touch with your old HoS friends, or pop over to our new page to meet a bunch of new ones...

So it's the school holidays ... you know where the new website is, right? If you've begun an on-line registration don't forget to complete it and submit it! Closing date is 16th October.

Hands-On at Otago Welcome to Hands-On at Otago, which builds on the huge and long-lived success of Hands-On Science. Hands-On at Otago is a weeklong residential camp for senior secondary students from all over New Zealand., Hands-on at Otago, University of Otago, New Zealand

Hey guys ... we are nearly ready to send out the Proceedings from Hands-On Science 2015.... this year has seen some very exciting developments: Hands-On Science has been transmogrifed to Hands-On at Otago, and will include projects from Humanities and Business ... Archaeology, Law, Philosophy, History, Politics, Marketing, Tourism all coming to a summer camp near you (unless you are far away)

Thank you to the people who have completed the SurveyMonkey in your final snippets. There's still time - the survey will be open until the end of the month, so please do take a minute or two to complete it, we would really appreciate your help.

Hi! Have you caught up on the sleep you missed while you were at Hands-On science?
Have you added absolutely EVERYONE to your facebook community?

We hope your exams have gone well, and you are enjoying a well-earned break. We sent you a small booklet with your letter - this has the travel form you needed to send in, but it also has a gear list and loads of other helpful information, so Don't Lose It!

this maybe a concern - you put it somewhere safe while you were studying … again, don't worry. All the info you need is on the website - except the gear list and that will be there soon!

Check the FAQ page if you have a question - it may be a question someone else has asked - or you can simply call or email Sandra and she will get back to you.

See you in January...

I hope you all are recovering from your great week at Hands-On Science! We have some lost items to return to you. Please contact me by email or phone.
Sandra

We sent out letters to everyone on the first of November. If you have NOT received your letter telling you whether you have been accepted into Hands-On Science ( or not) please let us know. We are very concerned that some people still haven't received their letters, 18 days later ...

Remember the Nga Mahi-a-ringa Putaiao scholarship and Pacific Island scholarship applications close THIS FRIDAY! If you need to courier them, send them to Hands-On Science, Division of Sciences, Union Court, 85 Union Place West, Dunedin.

We have finally sent out the Proceedings booklets to all who were at HoS in January this year. I hope you enjoy it!

Thank you all for coming to our place. We hope you spread the word that Hands-On Science is exceedingly cool, and we look forward to seeing you again some time at Otago ...
We've returned various lost property and will send on extra certificates in due course to those of you who LEFT THEM BEHIND...
So it's back to school next week i guess. Hope your year goes really well... keep in touch!

nearly three sleeps in ... and people still look as if they ARE sleeping, rather than sleep-deprived so thats good...

Richard Blaikie's lecture last night was very cool ... some on-going investigation into the magnification values of water called for!
