What is CSIRO you ask??
Well, CSIRO stands for
Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation.
Did you notice the word SCIENTIFIC?? Bet you have, Yes CSIRO is about science, for more information, go to http://www.csiro.au/.
We had two lessons already. The first session, we had Kylie helping us. We did experiments about potato calculators, dissolving sugar crystals, swinging pendulums and checking stomach gasses.
During our second session, we did chemical science with Prue. My group did something about electricity, detergent and food colouring, made clear slime, dried up water and loaads more. There were so much that the group I was with didn’t get the chance to finish every activity. The best was the slime part because we get to keep it. You can stretch it, bounce it and do loads of things with it!
I just can’t wait ’till the next CSIRO session!!!

Hey Nancy!
I’m Emily and I’m from Bellaire Primary
School In Victoria. I love science so
much that I have even run a science
club for juniors and they all loved it!
How did you make clear slime and
dry water? That sounds facinating!
Please come and look at my blog on:
