Think. Build. Solve. Compete!
Does your daughter like building things, solving puzzles, figuring out how things work, and taking on a challenge? Then EPro8 could be for her!
Meet the EPro8 Challenge
The EPro8 Challenge is an exciting, hands-on engineering and science competition.
Groups of students design, build, measure, test, think creatively, and work as a team to tackle real-world engineering challenges. Along the way, they’ll develop problem-solving, critical thinking, teamwork, engineering, maths, and practical STEM skills.
Represent St Cuthbert’s College
Plus, there’s an extra incentive: our students will have the opportunity to compete on a team that represents St Cuthbert’s College Junior School in next year’s EPro8 inter-school competition!
