Yes. The Secondary Liquid Nitrogen Science Theatre is explicitly aligned to: • NSW Science 7–10 Syllabus (2023) • Stage 6 Chemistry (Year 11–12) • Stage 6 Physics (Year 11–12) Concepts explored include: • Particle theory and states of matter • Energy transfer and thermal interactions • Gas pressure and volume relationships (qualitative) • Material properties at extreme temperature • Forces and energy interactions • Experimental design and risk management Each session is differentiated for Stage 4, Stage 5 or Stage 6, ensuring conceptual depth appropriate to the cohort. Full outcome mapping is available upon request.

Suitable for: • Year 7–8 (Stage 4) • Year 9–10 (Stage 5) • Year 11–12 Chemistry • Year 11–12 Physics The program is adjusted in language, depth and analytical focus depending on the year group. Senior groups may include deeper discussion of: • Kinetic theory • Enthalpy and endothermic processes • Gas behaviour (qualitative models) • Experimental error and data interpretation

Standard theatre sessions run for approximately 45–60 minutes. Extended sessions are available for larger staged productions or whole-school theatre events.

How many students can attend? Audience size depends on the format selected. We intentionally cap numbers in the Essentials format to preserve engagement and visibility. Larger numbers are best suited to the Expanded or Full Production formats, where staging is scaled accordingly. We prioritise experience quality over squeezing numbers into a room. We offer three production formats: Theatre Essentials • Up to 60 students • Compact staged setup Theatre Expanded • Up to 150 students • Multi-table theatrical experience

What space and setup is required? For the Essentials format: • A hall, library or large classroom • Clear front area approx. 3m x 3m • Access to power • Good ventilation Expanded and Full Production formats may require: • Stage or hall setup • Larger performance space

Yes. All demonstrations are conducted by an experienced NSW classroom teacher with over 30 years of teaching experience. The show is: • Fully risk-assessed • Public liability insured • Delivered with strict safety protocols • Audience kept at safe viewing distances Liquid nitrogen is handled professionally and responsibly at all times. A full risk assessment can be provided upon request.

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.

This is science theatre — not a generic demonstration. It is delivered by a current NSW high school teacher with 30 years of classroom experience, including teaching and marking HSC Chemistry and Physics. That means: • Every explanation aligns with how students are assessed • Syllabus intent is understood, not just referenced • Senior concepts are explained accurately and appropriately • Depth is adjusted in real time to the cohort This is not a performer reading from a script. It is curriculum-driven learning delivered by someone who understands both the science and the assessment. The difference is visible within minutes.

Absolutely. The Liquid Nitrogen Science Theatre can support units involving: • States of matter • Heating and cooling • Energy transfer • Scientific investigation • Physical change Pre- and post-show discussion prompts can be provided to strengthen integration into your program.

Yes. Schools partnering through the Curious Kids Program receive: • Priority booking • Enrichment alignment across multiple visits • Discounted rates for multi-event bookings • Integrated science club support Please contact us to discuss partnership options.

We offer three carefully designed production levels to suit different schools and venues. Multiple Class Sessions (Up to 3 classes combined | approx 75 - 95 students) Designed to align with a standard timetabled line. ✔ 60 min structured science theatre ✔ Explicit NSW Stage 4 or Stage 5 syllabus alignment ✔ High-level conceptual explanation ✔ Live data interpretation & structured questioning ✔ Delivered by a current teacher of Chemistry & Physics This format suits schools running 3 classes simultaneously. From $950 incl GST Cohort Science Sessions If a year group has more than 3 classes, two sessions are typically scheduled on the same day. The second session benefits from reduced staging time and shared setup. Second session: from $850 incl GST This ensures the entire year group receives the experience without timetable disruption. Full Year Cohort (All classes combined) For schools preferring a single large-scale academic event. ✔ Expanded cryogenic systems ✔ Larger staging footprint ✔ Enhanced visual scale ✔ Deep syllabus-linked explanation ✔ Ideal for Stage assemblies or focused science days Designed to maintain conceptual rigour even at scale. From $1,500 incl GST (Dependent on staging requirements and venue size)
