STEAM Day at OCS

Earlier this week Orange Christian School hosted a ‘STEAM Day’ (Science, Technology, Engineering, the Arts and Mathematics), inviting Clergate Public School, Cumnock Public School, Mullion Creek and Spring Hill Public School along to participate.

The Central West STEAM Day aims to inspire and engage students through activities that are hands-on and are rich tasks that develop knowledge, skills and understanding in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) subjects as part of the University of Sydney STEM Teacher Enrichment Academy.

Year 5 and 6 students from each school participated in the activities to complete a reflection on the 21st Century skills: collaboration, communication, creative and critical thinking.

Activities included, Green Screen, Coding, Shake Tower and Wind Car.

Some future geniuses in the making! Well done to all.
