STEM Optics Workshop 2024: Surry Hills NSW

In this interactive Optics workshop, you will learn to appreciate the magic of colour, mirrors, and shadows through the eyes of a child and explore the pedagogy behind developing child-led inquiry projects in your service or classroom.

This 3.5-hour professional development workshop will give you the confidence to unlock the wonders of STEM in your service through the gateway of optics, develop and facilitate project work, and is a great workshop for educators who are both new and experienced in delivering STEM in early childhood settings.

This Optics & Inquiry Projects Workshop is strongly recommended for educators planning to nominate their service in the Little Scientists Early STEM Education Awards 2024: Australia’s only dedicated awards to recognise STEM excellence in early childhood education. Nominating in the service category requires you to develop and document an inquiry-based project with the children in your service, which is one of the key focuses of this workshop.
