Explosive Fun at 11th Ballarat Guides’ Science Night
Science came to life at 11th Ballarat Guides as the girls explored fascinating experiments during a hands-on Science Night.
Led by Aileen Shearer-Cox and her daughter Emily (a former Guide), the night was filled with exciting discoveries and laughter. The highlight was the ‘Chicken Cup’ – A simple paper cup that somehow made real chicken noises. Weird, right? 🐔
The girls also tested out other fun experiments:
🚀 Coca-Cola rockets blasting into the sky
✏️ Using static electricity to make a pencil spin
🎈 Using bi-carb soda to inflate a balloon—no puffing needed
Science Night was a fantastic mix of learning and fun, proving that science can really be amazing.
