Deaf Youth Science Camp

Deaf Youth Science Camp

The Deaf Youth Science Camp is a chance for Deaf/hard-of-hearing young people (aged 12-17 years old) to participate in an immersive science experience. 

At the camp, participants will do hands-on science activities, go on tours of different science facilities, and meet Deaf STEM professionals. The camp is also an opportunity to develop personal and leadership skills as well as enhance friendship networks. 

This camp is hosted by Deaf Youth Australia and ANSTO. In 2025, the camp was funded by a National Science Week grant.

Year 11 Chemistry

Our Year 11 Chemistry tour and depth study guide can be used as the starting point for a depth study about nuclear science, covering nuclear-related components of Module 1: Properties of Structure and Matter.
All tours are available Monday to Friday for Years 7 to 12 classes. The cost per student is $12.50 and teachers are free. 
Teachers are requested to print enough copies of the relevant workbook for their class before their visit to ANSTO, as students will not be permitted to bring digital devices on-site.

Micro-Particle Induced X-ray Emission

Micro-Particle Induced X-ray Emission (µPIXE) is used to construct elemental maps that show variations of an element's concentration across the sample surface.

Going underground to understand Australia's past climate variability

Given the importance of water in Australia, surprisingly, there is relatively little information about the past variability of rainfall on this continent. Although there is a good annual record of the past 100 years in Australia, there is nothing much before that period and no known cave deposit records exist for New South Wales.

Meet an Expert

Let your students lead a 30-minute Q&A session with our ANSTO experts about one of the following three topics:

- Nuclear medicines
- Nuclear techniques to study the environment
- Fission and its applications in reactors

Our staff are experienced science communicators and can discuss ANSTO's research with secondary classes at an appropriate level of detail.

Please ensure your students do some pre-reading about the research topic and come prepared with questions to ask during the session. We also ask that teachers send us a copy of the student questions the day before, so we can adequately prepare for your session.

Teachers must be present during the session with their students.
