Snowy Hydro Education Program
Snowy Hydro has been running educational programs for schools visiting the Snowy Mountains Scheme for over a decade. Our programs offer a unique learning experience for students from Primary School to Year 12.
A range of education classroom resources has been produced specifically for schools, each providing an appropriate case study for a range of syllabuses. ย As well as these classroom resources, the Snowy Hydro Discovery Centre situated in Cooma (just over an hour from Canberra) has a range of activities tailored to fit your programs. ย The Centre focuses on the Schemes power stations, dams, water resources and energy market but it also includes displays on key topics such as water, environment, engineering and history. ย Exhibits ranging from pedal-power bikes, live information on the National an interactive energy market and interactive hands-on models reinforce a dynamic learning experience for students of all ages. ย The Centre delivers tailored presentations to students about the Scheme which cover the environment, cloud seeding, renewable energy, National Electricity Market and water.
