Specialist opt-in opportunities are designed for students who want to learn more through regular and repeat visits and industry exposure. Registration for these events can be coordinated through schools or individually by students themselves.
The Girls in STEM program is centred around “you can’t be what you can’t see” and provides young women with access to mentors, experiences and skill development in a focused and supported environment for two days per term across the year.
The Boys in STEM program is focused on providing young men with a similar opportunity to our highly successful and well established Girls in STEM program. Running for two days per term throughout the year, it will enable students to explore the world of STEM through hands on activities and connections with local industries.
This industry design challenge is ideal for students considering a VET course or career in Hospitality, Cookery, Baking or food related industries.
