Stage 3 - Challenge Expo - an amazing success

Exploding lemons, "Mad Science Lab", energy tests, puzzles, games, toys and even food, were created by our Stage 3 students as part of their Science/project based learning (ProBL) Stage 3 Challenge Expo on Wednesday 14 November.

Our students used science to either create a product or an experiment that K-4 students would either purchase or choose to be participants. In the lead up to Challenge Expo, all Stage 3 students were organised into small teams and engaged in:

  • market research
  • business planning
  • product design
  • critiquing and modifying
  • advertising
  • preparing and operating their businesses on the day
  • reflecting on their successes and areas for improvement.
