Creative Edge

Congratulations to the Year 5-10 Creative Edge teams who made us so proud at the Creative Edge competition day on August 24. The students did an incredible job of representing the College with their thought-provoking performances.

The judges gave a special commendation to the Year 8/10 team who created a highly impactful performance centred around the impacts of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder on young people.

Four of our teams across Primary and Secondary placed in the top 3 for their division at the regional round and have now been invited to compete in the WA State Final. Congratulations to all the students and good luck for the finals at Curtin University next weekend!

Game Changer Awards

Game Changer Awards is a STEM competition held at ECU Joondalup, which challenges students to work in groups to select one of the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals and then work through the Design Thinking Process to develop a STEM-based solution that can improve the situation in their chosen area.

This year, we have 56 students across Years 4-10 who have taken up the challenge. They have been working on a broad range of topics including reducing the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, increasing female representation in parliament, developing tsunami-resistant infrastructure and improving the quality of slums.

We are looking forward to seeing how the students continue to progress through the process and are so proud of the work they’ve done so far.
