We are pleased to provide fully-sponsored places in 3 educational school holiday programs to be held in January. A number of businesses and business people in the Canberra community have come together to sponsor children with a specific interest in science, technology and social innovation who may find it challenging to pay for a quality educational school holiday program.
The details are as follows:
- 11 & 12 January – Teen Start-Up: The Science of Everyday – 10 sponsored places available for students in Years 3 to 5 interested in science, creativity and problem solving. For more information visit https://www.teenstartupcamp.com.au/programs/teen-start-up-the-science-of-everyday.html
