Schools exploring quantum physics this National Science Week

1 Apr 2025 4:24 PM | Anonymous

The school theme for National Science Week in August 2025 is ‘Decoding the Universe – Exploring the unknown with nature’s hidden language’.

Students and teachers across Australia are invited to delve into the mysteries of the Universe by exploring the fundamental languages of nature, including mathematics and quantum science.

Aligned with Quantum Year and the 2025 International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO), which is being hosted in Australia, this theme serves as a bridge between basic science education and the exploration of specialised topics.

“Decoding the Universe” will empower educators to inspire and engage students by exploring the mathematics and quantum science that underpin both the natural world and the modern technologies we use every day, from photosynthesis to satellite navigation.
