Enrichment Programmes

Snow City adheres to the above educational mantra. Our enrichment programmes cater to both visual and experiential learners. Our main goal is to foster interest in science through the novel experiences offered by the demonstrations and hands-on activities.
These programmes provide a unique experience to the students that cannot be duplicated in ordinary classrooms. Students get to learn all about liquid nitrogen-concepts of force, pressure, effects of cooling, properties of materials, change of state of matter from a temperature of -196oC to room temperature and more!
Do you know the difference between Arctic and Antarctic poles? Or that penguins and polar bears never exist in the same pole? Come and discover all these fun facts at Little Winter Wonders, our hands-on programme designed by Make*Believe for children 3 to 6 years old to explore such knowledge.

Fun with Liquid Nitrogen (11 to 18 years old)
Description:		This class is recommended for those who attend low-temperature science programmes for the first time. The programme involves several demonstrations that showcase the properties of liquid nitrogen. Students will be awed by liquid nitrogen as it smokes, expands and evaporates. The ability for liquid nitrogen to readily freeze objects will definitely amaze students.
Mode of Delivery:		Lecture Demonstration
Topics:		Force, pressure, effects of cooling, properties of materials, change of state of matter, temperature
Ice-Cream Making (3 and above)
Description:		Students will learn about the history of ice-cream and the different ingredients used in making ice-cream. Our instructor will take them through the various techniques used in making ice-cream. The focus will be on the use of liquid nitrogen. Students will then get into groups to make their own ice-cream and enjoy their own creations later!
Mode of Delivery:		Lecture demonstration and hands-on activity
Topics:		Transfer of heat, effects of heat exchange and properties of matter in different temperatures
Winter Olympics (8 and above)
Description:		An instinctively enjoyable programme fit for anyone that just wants to have a roaring good time.
