We’ve all played with kaleidoscopes but have you ever wondered how they work?
Join scientists from Te Whai Ao – Dodd-Walls Centre and get hands-on with light, the original quantum phenomenon. Dive into the science of reflection, how we use it for more than brushing our teeth, and make your own teleidoscope – instruments that transform how we see the world around us.
It’s the perfect mix of art and science!
Ages 5 - 8 years caregiver required.
This event is part of our April 2025 School Holiday Fun programme.
