Duncraig Secondary Snapshot

Join our mission into the 33rd season of FIRST®! Are you ready to build a better tomorrow together?

This program inspires young people to experiment and grow their confidence, critical, thinking, and design skills through hands-on STEM learning.

This year’s FIRST LEGO League challenge is called CARGO CONNECT. Teams will learn about how cargo is transported, sorted, and delivered to its destinations.

As more demands are placed on transportation systems, the children need to rethink how cargo is transported from place to place. We have the power to build a path forward and invent the future of transportation. And it starts here, with you.

What if you could build a better world? Where would you begin?

You will also build, test, and program an autonomous robot using LEGO® MINDSTORMS technology to solve a set of missions in the Robot Game. Throughout their experience, teams will operate under Core Values celebrating discovery, teamwork, and Gracious Professionalism®.

Are you ready for the Challenge?

Year 11 and 12 ATAR Marine and Maritime Studies students visited the WA Shipwreck Museum to learn more about ancient spice trading, Dutch explorers and the incredibly story of the Batavia. Standing next to artefacts form the wrecks that are almost 400 years old was quite memorable experience for them, highlighting the importance of the conservation techniques they have been learning in class.

Australian Sports Camps are running a 3-day programs in the area this upcoming school holidays.

Yesterday saw a group of Year 10 students attend UWA for the annual Science Café experience. Students were able to meet current academics, undergraduate students and students from other schools to have a unique opportunity to speak with professionals and students from a whole variety of science backgrounds and to gain practical knowledge about future careers in Science.

Students were able to hear from experts in fields that interested them and to also network with academics and other students and see first hand where studies in Science can lead St Stephen’s students, as St Stephen’s alumni were part of the organising group and it was a real treat to catch up and hear about their journey so far.
