Explore electricity and magnetism! This engaging 1-hour workshop allows your children to investigate electricity circuits and magnetism activities. Find out the difference between series and parallel circuits, how do magnets work and how are these linked together? See 100,000 volts discharged in a flash and conduct electricity through the palm of your hand – a ‘hair raising’ experience! Predict the movement of magnets based on their polarity. What different types of circuits are there? Race super magnets through conductors and more… The workshop covers static and current electricity, magnetic repulsion and attraction, electromagnetism, simple circuits and renewable energies. Available as a holiday program within Australia or as a video conference to any vacation center around the globe! If you connect with us via Zoom Full system requirements for Zoom here Each child should test their Zoom connection here.

School Comments View All

I just wanted to pass on how much the staff and students really enjoyed it and how perfect it was to launch our science week activities. The students were enthralled, educated and entertained – a perfect trifecta!

-Caulfield Grammar School – Big Science Big Fun

Thanks so much for presenting at our school on Monday. Our students enjoyed the show.

-Greenvale Primary School – Big Science Big Fun

Fizzics Education curated a thoughtful and hands-on experience for the children, incorporating practical, skill-based learning activities and followed by a science presentation at the end of the event involving liquid nitrogen. This was delivered safely and effectively, capturing both the children and the parents for the duration of the presentation.

-Macquarie Bank – Family Fun Day

Fizzics Education ran a show today at our school and it was wonderful. He was a great facilitator and the show was age appropriate and well done.
