August 8th saw the first collaboration with Melbourne’s Science Gallery to deliver a video conferenced session on ‘Reimagining your waste’. Marian College in Ararat took advantage of this great opportunity to link their students direct to the Melbourne Uni Pop-Up locations to learn about:

1. Sewer soap
2. Polystyrene munching worms
3. Urine to power cell phones

Presenters were outstanding in their knowledge and passion for the experiments in progress. The Marian College students posed great questions and had to make some value judgements about what recycling strategies they would/would not consider using themselves.
