Information for Teachers
ExperimentFest is a great way for your students to gain 'hands-on' experience performing those experiments that are a little difficult to manage in a classroom environment.
ExperimentFest is organised by leading academics in the Faculty of Science and Information Technology at the University of Newcastle and sponsored by the Department of Education and Training. So your students will gain invaluable knowledge from experts in their field and gain the confidence necessary in preparation for the HSC.
