The Deadly STEM in Schools program conducts face to face STEM learning sessions amongst primary and high school students, in their schools and other community facilities. These sessions focus on highlighting Indigenous STEM learnings and linkages to Western Society learning equivalents. For high school students they will be designed to have practical and real world applications. 

Where possible team members will also spend time with teachers discussing these learnings, to ensure every opportunity is taken to embed them.

The Program is aimed at students from Kindergarten to Year 12. In primary school the Program activities are designed to have students engage with STEM – ‘STEM is fun”. In high school the Program is designed to encourage enrollment in STEM subjects and then ultimately enrollment in Vocational or University subjects, or take up of STEM based careers.

Our team consists of Indigenous knowledge holders, scientists and education specialists who together have built and are now delivering these Programs. The Programs will be primarily conducted by Indigenous facilitators as it is important for students to hear how one of their ‘mob’ became a STEM professional. After all “you can’t be what you can’t see”.

There is a thirst in schools for Indigenous science knowledge; and we are seeing incredible increases in requests for our presence in schools Australia-wide.

Our Deadly STEM in Schools Programs team is hitting the road in 2024 and will be in:

SA: August 26th – 28th
