The
Sydney Science Trail is a family-friendly science bonanza at the
Royal Botanic Garden Sydney (Mrs Macquaries Rd, Sydney), the
Australian Botanic Garden Mount Annan (Narellan Road, Mount Annan) and the
Australian Museum (1 William St, Sydney) from
13-20 August 2022. Celebrate and enjoy all things science with free talks, outdoor activities and hands-on science fair stalls. See science come to life with fizzing experiments and hair-raising demonstrations, and get up close with wildlife. All activities are free so come along and be entertained by nature-play activities, roving performers, face painting, and great food trucks to fill hungry tums.
Meet scientists from the Australian Institute of Botanical Science, the University of Technology Sydney and the Centenary Institute as they take you through educational activities that'll leave the whole family in awe. Learn about First Nations medicine, see rare plants in the Orchid Nursery, visit the Plant Clinic and learn about the conservation work of botanic gardens. This program is for the RBG Sydney event on
13 & 20 August 2022, but you need to
check here for a different program running at the other two venues on
Sat 20 Aug 2022. It touches on climate change solutions, First Nations tools and technologies, a T-Rex autopsy show and more.
From 13 August you can traverse the new Sydney Science Trail online and discover cutting-edge science at home. Explore videos, photogrammetry, and blogs from top scientists, researchers and curators.
