The projects aim to enhance the interest of children in learning and motivate them to explore the world of physics. PolyU students work in groups to organise STEM workshops for the children through demonstrations, laboratory work and competitions related to interesting topics about physics and environment. These topics include concepts of force and energy in mechanical motions. The outputs of PolyU students and student participants are displayed in community centres. A Science Fun Day is also held to conclude the services.
