The Lab
Skills for learning, life and the world of work
Explore the world of chemical sciences
It’s time to become mad scientists! (Crazy wigs optional).
MiniBOSS’S full day incursion ‘The Lab’ is a chemical sciences extravaganza filled with out of this world experiments and hands on learning opportunities. Students begin the day by exploring the reactions, changes and behaviours of chemicals found in a bath bomb.
Working in teams, they then have the opportunity to not only create their own bath bombs, but also a bath bomb business. Teams work together to find the perfect colour, scent and business logo for their target market. This incursion is truly the bomb!
The Lab is an action packed day which links to the Chemical Sciences Unit. It is an enterprising program, with students developing key skills in teamwork, critical thinking, problem solving, creativity, financial literacy, digital literacy, communication and presentation skills.
