STEM Has Flourished – Mrs Ryan

STEM has certainly taken off with a flourish in 2022. Students from Mary MacKillop Catholic College have been assisting the students of the local primary catholic schools with their applications in coding and robotics. The visits on Thursday afternoon are proving very rewarding for students from all schools and students are always left wanting more.

The College has been fortunate enough to acquire a wonderful grant from the Australian Government Business sector to promote the involvement of girls in coding and robotic activities. We have acquired kits from EduTech, with this we have committed our students to competing in an international robotics competition working with students from the primary schools and those at MMCC to showcase their coding skills.

The STEM team are once again beginning to take on the Solar Car Challenge of 2022, as we aim to match our achievements of last year. A bright future in STEM is surely ahead at MMCC.
