Programme

Forces are the hidden power behind everything that happens in our world - and beyond. This meet will delve into the science of moving things and explore the different kinds of motion. We'll then put this into practice building, and launching from, mini catapults!

Chemistry is all about figuring out the secrets of the universe by looking at tiny building blocks and their behaviour. This meet will be packed with hands-on activities that explore fascinating and visually impressive chemical reactions using common household ingredients. Keas will discover the secrets of matter and energy by making our very own magic potions - from floating raisins to elephant's toothpaste!

Building forts is an exciting and imaginative activity. This meet will unleash our Keas creativity as they design and construct their secret spaces using a range of materials letting their imaginations soar. It's a chance to work together, negotiate ideas, and create something special.

Grab your backpack and put on those sturdy shoes - it's time for a kid-powered adventure! In this meet our Keas will be adventuring through nature's wonderland to Waterfall Gully located in Shakespear Regional Park to see the lights of the glow worms and experience the enchantment of nature firsthand.

This two-part topic will turn our Keas into curious young stargazers! In this meet we will explore the make up of our solar system before letting your creativity soar among the stars by making their own paper mache planet.

It's time to gaze upward, ponder the cosmos, and unravel the mysteries of the universe. In this meet, Keas will peer through a telescope, or as we like to call 'a cosmic spyglass', to see the universe unfold before their eyes. Keas will also have the opportunity to paint their paper mache planet surface.

Electricity is like a secret code that makes our world bright and exciting. In this meet, Keas will let their curiosity spark as they learn about the fascinating world of electricity, circuits, and energy in a hands-on way.

We wrap up the term with a night of ten-pin bowling and a chance to revisit many of the scientific concepts covered in this term's programme while aiming for the perfect strike!

Forces are the hidden power behind everything that happens in our world - and beyond. This meet will delve into the science of elasticity and investigate how materials behave when stretched or compressed. We'll then put this into practice building, and launching from, mini catapults!

Chemistry all about understanding what things are made of and how they work. This meet will be packed with hands-on activities that explore fascinating and visually impressive chemical reactions using common household ingredients. Cubs will discover the secrets of matter and energy and the changes that occur when substances are combined, from floating raisins to elephant's toothpaste!
