About this Event

Students embark to explore how things are powered through hands-on stations! Participants experiment with catapults, gravity, wind, solar energy, circuits, and manual power while testing how different energy sources make things move, light up, and work.

Participants will engage in a hands-on exploration of power and energy through interactive learning stations designed for curiosity and experimentation. Each station highlights a different form or source of power, including gravity, wind, solar energy, manual force, and electrical circuits.

Learners will test how transporters and catapults move objects, investigate gravity as a source of motion, compare indoor light versus solar power, and explore how wind energy works. Additional stations allow participants to build simple circuits using different power sources, such as batteries and manual generators, to see how energy choices impact outcomes.

This event encourages problem-solving, inquiry, and collaboration while helping learners understand how energy is generated, transferred, and used in everyday systems.
