The Western Australia National Science Week Coordinating Committee awarded $20 000 in small grant funding to 13 successful applicants this year.

Thank you to the over 50 applicants who put forward incredible ideas for National Science Week activities. Over $80 000 of funding requests for event ideas from across the state – it was a very tough process deciding who would receive funding.

Supported activities in 2019 include a science comedy show, the Science of Slime, A Meet the Scientists Session, STEM Fairs, 3D Print Hack-a-thon, star-grazing and many more across WA.
