There has never been a more important time to focus on STEM subjects due to the rapid technological progression of our world.

Our presentation is interactive and thought provoking, exploring areas such as “Creator versus Consumer”, “Australia’s leadership through education”, “Moral responsibility of teachers and parents”, “setting up an environment condusive to technology”, “the positive effect of failure”.

The kids of today are progressing into a completely new world which will be heavily dependent on new technologies which will require a strong knowledge and understanding of Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths.
