Magic Lava Lamp The lava lamp looks magical with its coloured bubbles sinking and rising. It is a model of what actually happens in Earth's mantle, and demonstrates convection currents which are the driving force of plate movement. In this workshop, the audience can make their own lava lamp and learn about the concept of density while enjoying some fizzing good fun!
(Suitable for children aged 4-10 accompanied by a parent)

Multiple Perspectives on Disaster Preparedness Other than severe weather, Hong Kong has small chance of facing natural disasters, such as large earthquakes. But the chance may be increased when we stay abroad. In this workshop, the audience will know more about typhoon and earthquake, how to cope with them and the importance of disaster preparedness through interactive games. It will enhance their knowledge and skills on the scope of community resilience and reduce the impacts of disasters on everyone.
Jointly organised with Community Resilience Service, Hong Kong Red Cross

Nice to meet you, Mr Rock!
Although Hong Kong is a small place, it has abundant geological resources and different types of rocks, including igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic rocks. What do they look like? Where to find them? Are there any interesting stories behind them? Get the answers by joining this workshop and meeting Mr Rock!
