Bringing you a jam-packed program of events during National Science Week.

Sydney Science Trail 2021 is now closed

Join us in 2022 for a free online adventure filled with family-friendly science programs, presented in collaboration with the Royal Botanic Garden Sydney.

The annual program by the Australian Museum, Royal Botanic Garden Sydney and other partners is an opportunity for curious kids of all ages and schools to think, talk and experience the science conducted at our organisations – from the study of the natural world and research into the effects of climate change to the exploration of the environmental knowledges of First Nations peoples.

The super-fun online Sydney Science Trail is packed with on-demand activities, kids games and opportunities to learn both at home and in the classroom.

Save the date for the next Sydney Science Trail 13 – 21 August 2022

Take the trail and be rewarded for what you discover! All kids and their families are invited to jump into this jam-packed interactive science game of activities, videos and challenges all about the natural world.

Discover STEM at home and traverse the trail to uncover cutting-edge science for kids. Explore the newest research in climate change and sustainability, First Nations scientific innovations and the science behind the food we eat every day.
