We have recently received the wonderful news that seven teams from Wyvern House have been invited to the finals of the ICT Young Explorers Competition. The ICT Young Explorers Competition is an event that allows students from across Australia to display their best Information and Communication Technology related projects. Their projects will be judged by industry leaders in the field of technology. The competition inspires creativity, collaboration and sharing of ideas and knowledge. It also provides opportunity for the boys to network with other students who are similarly passionate about ICT.

The finals will be held on Saturday the 16th of August at the University of New South Wales. Family and friends are encouraged to attend the event. A photographer, videographer and local media representatives will be present at the competition. Registration opens at 8:00am and the presentations are excepted to finish at 3:00pm. Below are linked the projects created by the boys. We wish them all the best in the finals and commend them on their tremendous efforts.
