The Sci Tech experience was initially intended to be an excursion involving just one class but the expenses involved meant it was more economical to present it to a bigger audience.

Students from years seven through to 12 got to miss a few hours of school and see the many wonders of Sci Tech’s exhibitions.

Many of the younger crowd gazed n wonder and excitement at the ‘cooler’ aspects of science in the ‘Supercool’ display.

Hosted by Kate Reuben and Matt Titmanis, ‘Supercool’ was a display of the interesting abilities of liquid nitrogen, involving blowing up a balloon until it exploded, freezing a rubber duck until it shattered and shrinking a balloon animal.

With three activities occurring simultaneously, including the Space Dome, ‘Supercool’, and Science of Flight, different age groups of students rotated between the activities throughout the day.
