Competitions

The competitions for Technology Discovery Day are meant to be challenging. This year there are nine competitions and we strongly encourage all students to participate in at least one.

  • Most competitions require that your students prepare/build their entry prior to Technology Discovery Day while others require no preparation at all.
  • Most competitions require that you submit an entry form when you check in. It helps to have the forms completed when you arrive; if not, you will be asked to fill them out at check in.
  • Check out the Frequently Asked Questions about the competitions.
