Register your interest to participate in a FREE pilot excursion for our brand-new program, Microscopic World!
We are giving away two free excursions to Telethon Kids Institute in the month of August to launch our brand-new primary school program - Microscopic World. Students participating in this pilot excursion program will have the opportunity to explore the microscopic world of bacteria, learn about harmful and helpful bacteria, and view some of these critters under a microscope. Suitable for students in Years 5-6, this excursion program enables students to get up close to a real microscope to learn how to use it and understand the processes involved in slide preparation.
As the program is in its pilot phase, classes participating in the free excursion will be required to complete a feedback survey at the conclusion of their visit. We will also be seeking photography consent to take photos of your students as they engage in the exciting activities.
Interested in taking part and being the first to try out this brand-new program? Register your interest by completing our online booking form with your details, selecting a date in August and quoting 'Microscopic World' in the comments box.
We'll let you know by email if your school has been selected to try out this new excursion program at no cost, so keep an eye out on your inbox!
