Big Bang Science Workshops

Hands-on discovery science for 5 to 12 year olds

We offer a series of "Big Bang" STEM-related workshops to fit your needs. Whether it's a one-off event, or a regular science club these workshops are designed for children aged 5 to 8 years old and 9 to 12 years old, with accompanying adults always welcome. All our activites have the aim of instilling confidence in asking and answering questions about the natural world through genuine science-based investigations. For example, what kinds of explosive reactions await in your kitchen pantry, can balloons really demonstrate scientific principles and how about balancing objects in defiance of gravity?! In Sydney, we offer Big Bang Science Workshops for primary school aged children to venues offering science clubs, holiday programs or school incursions. We can also ‘science up’ your birthday parties.
