Today's Hydrogen Grand Prix Australian Championships Results
Our Canterbury Hydrogen Grand Prix Secondary Team came third out of 20 crews competing up in the Gladstone Entertainment & Convention Centre today!
The five students completed 499 laps over four hours, with their very own hydrogen-powered remote-controlled car, to grab the bronze trophy.
Congratulations to our very own 'Fast & Furious' racers…
NEWS STORY: First Ever Australian H2GP Held Today
Gladstone in regional Queensland hosted Australia’s first ever Horizon Hydrogen Grand Prix (H2GP), a school-based science and engineering program, that seeks to nurture the talent of the world’s future renewable energy leaders.
The four-hour race held at the Gladstone Entertainment & Convention Centre on Friday 21 April from 10:30am, was supported by several industry and government partners.
The event itself, run by Horizon Educational, is the culmination of a six-month long STEM education program, in which students worked with teammates and industry mentors to design, engineer and construct their very own hydrogen-powered remote-controlled cars.
Today’s H2GP saw 20 teams from across Australia’s East Coast – including 12 from Central Queensland – put their renewable energy engineering skills to the test, racing their self-built 1:10-scale hydrogen-powered cars over the four-hour ‘endurance race’.
The race winner is advancing to the Horizon Hydrogen Grand Prix World Final, to be held in September.
Secondary School Gardening Club | Tuesday Lunchtimes @ College Plant Nursery (Near Canterbury Functions Centre)
Secondary School Gardening Club | Tuesday Lunchtimes @ College Plant Nursery (Near Canterbury Functions Centre)
Dear ALL Secondary Students,
We have a Canterbury Gardening Club available for Secondary Students.
Each In-Term Tuesday Lunchtime you can visit the school's Plant Nursery (NOT the campus kitchen garden), to learn more about plants and how they grow.
It's all about utilising propagation and how you can profit from plants!
We have a great variety of plants for you to work with.
You can come once to check us out, or every week - it's entirely up to you.
If you are keen, you may even get the okay to visit and work in our plant nursery without supervision.
So come and have a look - it may change your life and turn your thumbs green!
The Canterbury Plant Nursery is sort of 'tucked away' below the Canterbury Functions Centre, behind T Block's T5 and T4 rooms where the wire fencing is.
Yours in plants, environmentalism, fun and Canterbury,
Mr Paul Penny
