CONOCO PHILLIPS SCIENCE EXPERIENCE - BY MACKENZIE SWAN

Swan_MacKenzie_Head_Shot.jpg
From the 14th - 16th January I was lucky enough to be one of 23 students participating in the Conoco Phillips Science Experience at the University of New England in Armidale. The experience was a 3 day program where students ranging from Year 8 - 10 had the opportunity to experience Science at a university level.

As part of the experience we participated in hands on Science experiments and toured some of the many Science research facilities. We were able to meet lecturers and researchers that research a variety of Science branches. Some of my favourite parts of the trip were touring the animal Science research facility and the nature walk around Dumaresq Dam.

I would like to sincerely thank the Rotary Club of Stanthorpe for sponsoring me, as well as Mrs Brooke Butson for helping me apply. This experience is one I would strongly recommend to any students from Year 8 - 10 who enjoys Science or is interested in studying Science at a university level.
