Workshop Information

What has to vibrate before we can hear a sound? Growley and the Silent Saxophone turns a musical mystery into an investigation of sound, vibration and how instruments create different noises. Children observe and compare vibrations, explore how sound travels and investigate the relationship between movement and what we hear. Hands-on exploration encourages careful listening, prediction and scientific reasoning as children test ideas about how sounds are produced and changed. The workshop connects music with physical science, helping children see familiar sounds as evidence of invisible vibrations and movement. Perfect for early learning, primary schools and OSHC groups looking for a story-led science experience filled with sound and discovery. Beyond the Beanstalk brings the specialist equipment and workshop resources to your service for approximately 75 minutes of hands-on STEM discovery.
