On Thursday week 5, we were lucky to be visited by the Questacon team. Questacon is an interactive ‘science circus’ that promotes the Questacon National Science and Technology centre in Canberra. The three junior primary classes gathered in the hall to watch the science circus first. They learnt the three steps of science inquiry, ask a question, make a prediction and then test the experiment. Miss Lange and some students were able to help the instructors up the front to test some experiments.

The first act was all to do with sound and the vibrations that create different types of sound. The second act was about force and how some forces can change an objects shape.

The two upper primary classes watched the circus next. It was a fantastic performance and many children loved it!

I went to the Saturday performance and loved the Fire Act – Hope Year 2/3

I liked the music made from the bottles – Catie 5/6
