Lake Mac STEAM is a week-long program (13- 21 August 2022) of inspiring learning experiences that are centered around Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Maths that is held every year in conjunction with National Science Week.
The theme for National Science Week in 2022 is Glass: More than meets the eye. It is based on the UN International Year of Glass. It will celebrate the many roles that glass plays in our lives – from phone screens to optical fibre to glassware in labs – plus investigating glass as a part of our sustainable future. The uses for and intrinsic nature of glass in science make it a suitable topic for investigation across all strands of science education.
