ABOUT THE PROJECT

This project aims to develop partnerships already established as a result of cluster projects between seven participating primary schools, Darling Range Sports College and Curtin University.

The scope of these collaborations ranges from visits to Curtin University to participate in research activities, the Science Week Challenge, curriculum projects and shared resources particularly from High School to Primary School.

This website is built to encourage interschool cooperation, collaboration, communication between cluster participants regarding cluster projects, advertising events such as science fairs, a venue for students to display their work, schools to inform about their own projects, excursions and a help desk initially fielded by high school students.

Here you will also find our challenges, questions or problem of the month.
