School Holiday Program: CSI Forensic Science (7-12 years)

There’s been a crime at the library, and we need your help to solve it! Learn about the real techniques used in crime scene investigation and forensic analysis, like fingerprinting, facial reconstruction, fibre analysis, and DNA comparison in this hands-on workshop where you’ll use clues to work out whodunnit. This hands-on workshop with Fizzics Education combines the mystery of crime fiction with the real-world applications of STEM to teach children how forensic evidence is used to solve crimes in the real world.
