School Holiday Programs

A collaborative endeavour, Sci-Fly STEM Outreach has come together with PrimeSCI! to bring exciting hands-on, Aviation themed science programs to primary and junior secondary students in Melbourne.

Forces of Flight (grades 3-6)

Gravity is always present, so just how do heavy objects like aeroplanes overcome this and fly? A beginner's guide to lift, thrust, and drag, with practical tasks to investigate each force, including take home paper planes.

Aviation Navigation (grades 3-6)

The world may be full of GPS equipment, but pilots still learn to fly using paper maps, a ruler and protractor. Get hands-on with real aviation maps, learn some introductory navigation skills, and complete a challenge.

Up Lifting (grades 4-8)

Explore the physics of flight, learning from great scientists of the past - Newton, Coanda and Bernoulli. Hold on tight for some air-blowing experiments.

Scribble Bots (grades 4-8)

Begin with learning about basic electronic circuits, using LEDs, buzzers and a motor. Then progress to making a simple robot that draws crazy art, which you construct and take home.
