We are now taking enrolments for the courses below. Course venue is the Chartwell
Cooperating Church in Chartwell, Hamilton. Please email us for an enrolment form. Note
that these are not laboratory based courses.
Introduction to electricity and electronics
This exciting new workshop will see children learn about electricity and electronics concepts through a series of challenges using the Electroflash electronics teaching kits. They will learn about circuits, the function of common electrical and electronics components (such as light bulbs, resistors, diodes, transistors, capacitors, LEDs) and series and parallel circuits. A fun, hands-on workshop.
No prior knowledge or skills required. Suitable for ages 9-13, course fee: $25 per student.
Wednesday afternoon 22 February 2012
Introductory chemistry: atoms and molecules
A hands-on workshop where students learn about chemistry through using the Molymod molecular model building set. Topics: atom structure, electron structure, Periodic Table, compounds, balancing chemical reactions, organic families and their structures, 3-dimensional shapes of simple molecules.
Suitable for ages 13-17, course fee: $20 per student.
Thursday morning 23 February 2012
Workshop: Elements, atoms and molecules explained!
Topics are: what is an atom? What is an element? What is a molecule? We will look at the periodic table and study a few elements in more depth. We will build molecules using the Molymod molecular model building sets.
This workshop is hands-on with a variety of engaging activities. Children usually go home buzzing with excitement about their new knowledge and understanding of the basics of chemistry. Warning: be prepared for your child to want to do more science and chemistry!
No prior knowledge or skills required. Suitable for ages 9-13, course fee: $20 per student.
