CSI School

Age: 8 years + Group Size: 30 (90 in a full day)

CSI (Crime Scene Investigation) School involves the combination of forensic science with a creative twist. Students will all have a part to play in solving one of our 3 cases, tracing back evidence and investigating a crime scene. When students enter the crime scene they will have their fingerprints taken and be given their brief... Everyone is a suspect!
Level 1	CSI Murder Mystery
In our CSI Murder Mystery, students will partake in forensic and detective training before being assigned a case to solve. Experiments include: Dusting for Fingerprints, Bullet Trajectory, Human Lie Detector and Case Studies.
Level 2	CSI Burglary
In CSI Burglary, students will leap straight into training before entering the crime scene of a burglary, but is everything as it seems? Experiments include: Fingerprint Fuming, Handwriting Analysis, Foot Profiling and Advanced Dusting for Fingerprints. Students will investigate the crime scene before appealing for witnesses by creating a crime reconstruction and creating E-Fits.
Level 3	CSI Disappearance
The CSI Disappearance is different to our other CSI packages. Students will be given a brief with all the evidence then given the task to trace back what happened. This will include profiling the victim and suspects. This is a mystery that will require teamwork, expert problem solving and logical thinking. Experiments include: Profiling, Forensic Linguists, Forensic Dentistry and Ink Chromatography. Skills acquired in CSI levels 1 and 2 will also be key to solving this case. It takes approximately 8 hours to complete a level. So when running in curriculum time we typically do one class in 1.5 days or, if working with 3 classes, run over a week and do two classes in the morning and one in the afternoon.
