Yes — every part of this Chemistry Show is designed around the NSW K–6 Science & Technology (2024) syllabus. Students explore: • Chemical reactions and change • Properties of materials • Observable cause-and-effect Each demonstration is structured to develop: • Working Scientifically skills • Scientific vocabulary • Prediction and reasoning This is not a generic performance — it’s curriculum-driven chemistry learning brought to life through high-impact demonstrations.

This Chemistry Show is designed for Stage 1–3 (K–6) with content adjusted to suit each year level. • Stage 1: Simple observations and basic changes • Stage 2: Cause-and-effect and material properties • Stage 3: Deeper explanations of reactions and energy The same demonstrations are delivered at different levels depending on the audience.

Most sessions run for 45–60 minutes, depending on your school timetable. We can also offer: • Back-to-back sessions • Combined stage groups • Whole-school presentations

Choosing the Right Format for Your Students This is not a one-size-fits-all science show. Different group sizes create different learning experiences. Smaller groups allow for:  • Greater student participation  • Deeper questioning and discussion  • Stronger conceptual understanding Larger groups create:  • High-energy shared experiences  • Whole-school engagement  • Memorable science moments We help you choose the format that best supports your learning goals, space and timetable. Theatre Essentials Up to 60 students From $790 incl. GST Best for: Smaller groups, deeper learning, maximum participation A compact but powerful theatre-style science experience featuring:  • Strong focus on student prediction and questioning  • High interaction and participation opportunities  • Clear, curriculum-aligned explanations  • Forces & motion demonstrated through engaging experiments This format suits smaller halls, libraries, and single-class or stage groups.  It prioritises depth of understanding over scale. Theatre Expanded Up to 150 students From $950 incl. GST Best for: Stage groups, balanced engagement and impact A larger, multi-demo science experience including:  • Expanded demonstration sequence exploring forces in action  • Greater visual scale and audience energy  • Increased opportunities for student involvement  • Strong links to NSW Science & Technology (2024) outcomes Ideal for stage-based groups or combined classes.  This format provides the best balance between engagement, scale and learning impact. Most schools choose this option for maximum value and learning impact. Full School Production Up to 240 students per session From $1,750 incl. GST Best for: Whole-school events, science days, and large assemblies A high-impact science theatre production featuring:  • Large-scale demonstrations of forces, motion and energy  • Whole-school engagement with memorable visual moments  • Structured questioning to maintain learning focus  • Strong curriculum alignment delivered at scale Designed for large audiences while still maintaining clear explanations and learning connections. This is a premium, high-production science experience — not just a show, but a school-wide science event. Important Note All formats are designed to maximise learning outcomes —  The difference is in group size, level of interaction, and production scale. Many schools choose stage-based sessions (60–150 students) to maximise student participation and learning depth.

• School hall or large indoor space • Access to one standard power outlet • 30-minute setup time • 30-minute pack down time A detailed Technical Rider is provided after booking.

Yes — all demonstrations are carefully risk-assessed and delivered using strict safety protocols. • Professional equipment used at all times • Safe distances maintained for students • Age-appropriate demonstrations only Safety is always prioritised — without reducing the impact of the learning experience.

They participate. Deeply. This is not a “sit quietly and watch the science man” performance. Students: • Predict what will happen before experiments • Come on stage to assist with demonstrations • Handle large-scale equipment (where appropriate) • Justify their thinking aloud • Use real scientific vocabulary • Explain cause and effect in real time As teachers know: “Tell me and I forget. Show me and I remember. Involve me and I understand.” I involve them. Throughout the session, as many students as safely possible are invited up to assist with demonstrations — holding equipment, testing ideas, launching experiments, or helping reveal results. The science is wrapped in: • High-impact visual moments • Humour • Narrative storytelling • Big specialised equipment (giant balloons, dinosaur fossils, large-scale apparatus) The result? Students don’t just see science. They experience it. And experiences are what stick. This isn’t passive entertainment. It’s unforgettable, curriculum-driven learning disguised as an amazing show.

Most science incursions are a series of exciting demonstrations. This program is different. It is built as a structured science learning system — not a collection of experiments. Designed and performed by a NSW classroom teacher with 30 years of experience, every session follows a clear learning sequence: Predict → Observe → Explain → Apply Each demonstration is carefully selected and connected to: • NSW Science & Technology (2024) outcomes • Working Scientifically skills • Cause-and-effect understanding This is curriculum-driven learning delivered live, adapted in real time to student thinking. Yes — the equipment is BIG and exciting. But the difference is: 👉 The spectacle drives understanding — not just entertainment. Students don’t just watch — they: • Predict • Explain • Justify • Connect ideas Schools also receive a Teacher Support Document upon booking, with deeper syllabus links and classroom follow-up connections.

Yes. Many schools use this show to: • Launch a Forces unit • Consolidate learning • Support STEM initiatives • Enhance enrichment programs You’re welcome to share your focus areas prior to the visit.

Yes. Through the Curious Kids Program, schools can partner for weekly science clubs and enrichment programs across Years 3–6. This allows deeper alignment and continued skill development beyond a one-off show.

Yes — this program is fundamentally different from a standard “science show.” Many of the demonstrations used have been around for decades. What makes this program unique is how they are delivered. Each demonstration has been carefully reworked using current teaching pedagogy and refined through over 30 years of classroom experience. The result is a highly engaging science experience that doesn’t just entertain — it builds understanding, participation, and long-term retention. Students are guided through The Crazy Scientist Lab System™, a structured three-zone experience designed to develop clear conceptual understanding of how forces make things move, stop, and act without contact. This is not a “watch and react” performance — students are actively involved in predicting, observing, and explaining throughout the session. © The Crazy Scientist Pty Ltd.
