Our Year 11 Chemistry students recently had the exciting opportunity to visit ANSTO (Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation) to deepen their understanding of nuclear science and its real-world applications.
During the excursion, students explored the role of nuclear technology in medicine, industry, and environmental research. They toured the OPAL reactor, learned about radioisotopes, and saw firsthand how scientists use nuclear techniques to solve global challenges.
This hands-on experience brought classroom concepts to life and provided valuable insights into future careers in STEM. It was an inspiring and educational day for all involved!
