Homeschool Adventures Club Science Fair 2026

Date: Wednesday 21st October
Time: 10:00am to 2:00pm
Location: Rustique on the Coast, 2 Burns Road, Ourimbah

Calling all curious minds, budding scientists and creative thinkers! Join us for our Annual Homeschool Central Coast Science Fair, a fun-filled community event that celebrates the incredible learning happening within our homeschool community.

Whether your child loves chemistry, engineering, biology, environmental science or simply asking "why?", this is their opportunity to investigate a topic they're passionate about and proudly showcase it to family, friends and fellow homeschoolers. Projects can be as simple or as detailed as your child chooses. From erupting volcanoes and water filtration experiments to engineering challenges and plant investigations, every idea is welcome.

CATEGORIES

• Chemistry
• Physics & Engineering
• Biology & Environmental Science
• Research-Based Science

Families are welcome to enter individually or work together as a team, making it a wonderful opportunity for siblings to collaborate on a shared project.

REGISTRATION DETAILS

Register to secure your space to display your project at the fair. One table per child or if working in a team/ family. If multiple children are working on a project together as a team, they will be allocated one table for their one project. Please be sure to BYO your table for the day.

Be sure to fill out the form with the details about your project. We want everyone to have the chance to showcase their exciting project uniquely to the spectators. So we will be doing our best to keep all projects different and avoid double ups on perhaps common themes/ science related projects. We will be in contact if your project is approved or someone has already registered with a similar project, so keep an eye out on your email after registering.

Secure your spot now to avoid missing out as we have limited spots for stall holders, as well as getting your project approved before someone else has the same idea.

WHAT’S INCLUDED

• Display your own science project
• Explore projects created by other homeschoolers
• Hands-on science demonstrations and activities
• Community connection and inspiration during National Science Week
• A fun day celebrating learning together
