On Saturday 15 August 7 teams of Lindfield boys attended the final judging event for the Young ICT Explorers Competition. This was our third year of entering this competition and without doubt the quality of the projects that our boys presented and those of their competitors was high. The Lindfield teams consisted of a total of 16 boys from Years 3-6 who had collaborated on their projects at school and home during terms 2 and 3 and gave up the day to compete and share their passion with their peers and a multitude of interested adults and experts.

The event was held at the Australian Technology Park and involved 200 students from New South Wales, in Years 3 – 12, presenting 95 projects. It was an exciting day full of enthusiasm as the students presented their projects to each other and the judges in an exhibition style format. Throughout the day our boys did a fantastic job at presenting and representing our school!

Overall, Newington did very well receiving a multitude of awards and praise for our two divisions (Years 3-4 and Years 5-6) and the boys can be very proud of their efforts and achievements throughout this competition.

It was a great day for our boys and they clearly enjoyed the experience! We’re excited about what we’ll have to offer next year!
