This program is currently not available.

Challenge your students to take on this engaging problem-solving experience that will immerse them in the Beyond Perception exhibition themes with a unique twist.

Students will test their problem solving, critical and creative thinking skills and communication skills as they work collaboratively to solve a mystery. They will be expected to solve puzzles, find hidden clues and codes and solve equations before their thirty minutes is up.

Each team will be given a bag with a selection of tools that may help them along the way. Whilst participating in the program, students will learn about invisible fields and forces that surround us, such as gravitational waves, invisible light, sound and aerodynamics.
