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 9-10 Introduction to Nuclear Science Tour
This tour is an introduction to isotopes, radioactivity and half-life, and the real-life applications of these concepts. Students will do a series of hands-on activities using the workbook below.
We are working on new content to address the new 2026 NSW Science Stage 5 (Year 9-10) syllabus.
All tours are available Monday to Friday for Years 7 to 12 classes. The cost per student is $12.50 and teachers are free.
Please print enough copies of the relevant workbook for your class before your visit to ANSTO.

What is nuclear science?
Nuclear science is crucial to understanding our universe, our world and ourselves at the atomic level. If we can understand how atoms get together, interact, or can be best combined with other atoms, new, more efficient materials and drugs can be developed.
