Thank you to everyone who visited The Kids Research Institute Australia's Open Day on October 8. We were thrilled to welcome more than 700 guests to the Institute to discover more about our research. 

We hope you enjoyed meeting our researchers, listening to the talks, touring our labs, doing the science activities and getting to know a bit more about how our research improves the lives of kids. 

We know you loved meeting Fat Cat, getting a hula hoop lesson, having your face painted, completing your science passport and getting a cool showbag to take home.

We've put together a short highlights video from the event which shows just how much fun we all had on the day.  Are you in it?  We've also uploaded it to our Facebook page if you'd like to share it with your friends and family.
