Hills District kids their own private universe

By April 10th, 2006

School students from across the Hills District are invited to Baulkham Hills 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 course costs $88 for a full day.

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