Our STEM challenge 2017-18 is for girls at Key Stage 3 (years 8 and 9). Prizes of £250 for the winning schools and £50 per girl in the winning team will be presented. There will be one Year 8 and one Year 9 winning team. Additionally all participants will receive a CREST Award. CONNECT STEM PROJECTS TO REAL LIFE
World poverty is everyone’s responsibility and we should all help to

find a solution to some of the problems, especially those associated with hunger, water, health, lack of education, poor housing and transport. Our challenge is to design, research, plan and demonstrate ideas to improve lives in the Developing World. Examples of possible projects are:
Design a sustainable cooler to preserve food in hot countries
Design a tool for grinding grains into flour
Design a sustainable cooker
Design an all-terrain water carrier for developing countries. Entries will be judged on the process of the project rather than the accuracy of the final demonstration model. TIMETABLE
