Eastern Suburbs kids create their own private universe

By CSIRO MediaApril 10th, 2006

School students from across the Eastern Suburbs are invited to Rose Bay to create their own world within a bottle.

The classes are run by CSIRO Science Education during the school holidays.

Students between 11 and 14 will be shown how to plant a small tree within a bottle and build a natural ecosystem to support it.

Junior students (between 7 and 10) will make their own lava lamp or build their own balancing toy.

The day runs from 10:00am until 4:00pm and includes morning tea and lunch.

“The classes are run by CSIRO Science Education during the school holidays.”

The course costs $88 for a full day.

CSIRO Education Centres around Australia run interactive shows and workshops in schools and during school holiday periods.
