Interschool Hackathon

A hackathon is a fast paced problem solving event, typically lasting a couple of days in which a large number of people meet to engage in collaborative problem solving across disciplines, interests and skills.

We will have around 100 students from 5 government and private schools in the area, who, in small teams will tackle a few problem statements provided in advance. The students will work on the idea across the Friday, and on Saturday will pitch the idea to their peers, and industry judges. 

We are inviting students in years 8-11 from schools in the area to join us. Students may be across multiple year groups or a single year group, dependant on the school. Staff who attend can be placed in an interschool teachers team to participate, or they can be in the gallery observing.

Friday 13th October 9am-3.30pm (Students, staff, industry and university mentors)

Saturday 14th October 10am-1pm (Students, staff, industry and university mentors and judges, and parents/families)

All Saints College, Bull Creek Perth. Please checkin at Senior School Reception on arrival.
