Light & Mirrors

Minds-on
Students investigate and explore the scientific properties of light and also take a historical look into the appliances and technologies of the past.
Hands-on
Hands-on stations explore mirrors, light boxes, colour mixing, prisms and lenses while allowing students to handle cameras, light sources and the way we use light.
Plus
The Adult-led Group Trail explores how light is used in our lives today and in the past. The trail includes focus questions to motivate discussion, as well as supporting information about the displays.
