Science at the Lakes (SATL) is a free science and technology event for primary, middle and early secondary school students that is now in it's sixth year. The 2009 event is part of National Science Week and hosts a program filled with fun and challenging interactive activities, displays and demonstrations. The event will run from 10am to 2pm at the University of South Australia Mawson Lakes Campus. 

The 2008 event saw some 1300 students from some 33 South Australian primary and secondary schools attend a great day of activities.  With some 30 activities on offer there was plenty of great science events for students to get involved in. Make sure you bookmark this page for information about Science at the Lakes 2009.

Call for Workshops

Does your school or organisation have a suitable workshop, interactive presentation or static display that could be included in the Science at the Lakes 2009 program of activities.  If yes, the Science at the Lakes Committee invite you to register your workshop.  Schools are encouraged to participate through not only attending SATL, but also presenting.  Perhaps you have some students that could present a workshop and build it into the curriculum towards their SACE? Perhaps you are conducting an interesting SCience project throughout the year that could be replicated, displayed or presented. Read more to get involved.
