KidsFest Mysteries of the Mountains

Lincoln Envirotown Coordinator from Lincoln Envirotown

Keep the kids busy during the school holidays by looking into the "Mysteries of the Mountains" with enjoyable crafts and exciting science demonstrations. Learn about the wildlife and the many interesting features we find in our mountains and how mountains are formed. The traditional tunnel will take you up and through a mountain and the diorama activity will give you the chance to create your own alpine scene!

This is a ticketed event to keep numbers enjoyable, a $5 ticket allows entry for up to 4 people, including caregiver.

The Lincoln High School Sustainability Council have devised several craft activities and simple science experiments for our annual KidsFest Event. This year children are invited to explore the alpine environment through hands on interactive craft and science. They will learn about the life to be found in our mountains and its importance to us. This craft morning is truly a community experience with the older students getting as much out of it through their organizing and mentoring as the younger ones doing the activities and the learning.
