Tall Poppy Seminars
The Tall Poppy Campaign holds a series of seminars throughout the year. Each seminar is themed to allow integration of Mathematical, Physical or Biological Sciences and to highlight the interdisciplinary application of "science". Seminars include presentations from our Tall Poppies and are held in metropolitan or regional areas of South Australia. Numerous high schools are invited to bring their students to attend.
