The Little Bang Science Program

The Little Bang Science program aims to inspire a new generation of interest in STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics), environmental awareness, creativity and experimentation after the Library took delivery of Little Bang Discovery Club kits, the Big Bang Book of Science and a Storytime Science kit thanks to a $4,860 grant from Hunter Valley Operations.

The program is being launched with a free hands-on introduction to scientific enquiry and discovery for children aged 3-5 years and their carer on Friday 4 October 2024 from 2.30 – 3.30pm, as part of the Library’s school holiday activities.

The kits will also be used to deliver the wonders of science beyond the Library walls as an outreach activity to local preschools and early learning centres in the Singleton local government area.
