Tuesday: Gravity Lab

Students learn about the work of researchers at Australia's Gravity Discovery Centre by filling water balloons and dropping them from a safe height determined by the educator who drops a normal tennis ball with each water balloon students drop to show how objects of different weight fall at the same speed.

Wednesday: Boomerang Disc Golf

- Outdoor Activity

Students construct origami boomerangs using construction paper (this is important as normal paper will be too flimsy), then use their paper boomerangs to play disc golf- attempting to reach a number of buckets in as few throws as possible.
