2025 Science and Engineering Challenge Success

Congratulations to the St Paul's students from Year 8, 9 and 10 who won the Science and Engineering Day 1 Challenge hosted at the College.

The Science and Engineering Challenge (SEC) is a nationwide STEM outreach program presented by the University of Newcastle in partnership with communities, Rotary clubs, universities and sponsors. Students experience aspects of science and engineering which they would not usually see in their school environment.

The activities ranged from bridge building, to designing and testing a balsa plane, constructing fish traps, designing a rail network, the most efficient wind turbines, along with a new challenge this year called Eco-Habitech where students had to design and test a self sufficient habitat designed for polar conditions.

Well done to our team of students for this fantastic achievement!
