Still buzzing from the last two days at the STEM Racing State Finals hosted by Wyndham Tech School 🏎️⚙️ It was such a privilege to be invited as a judge... and WOW!!! These students blew me away. Under some serious interview pressure, they confidently explained their designs, physics thinking, and engineering tools like pros. So good to see this level of talent and curiosity in high schoolers. The future of engineering is in great hands 👏 Thanks to Sam Nikolsky, Ifradh Imthiyaz, and the team for organising such an impressive event! #STEM #Engineering #WyndhamTechSchool #STEMEducation #FutureEngineers #Innovation #DesignThinking #HandsOnLearning #Bugbox
In a grand, historic room at Craig’s Royal Hotel, Ballarat, we celebrated the achievements of 25 remarkable young women at the conclusion of the Seed2STEM program. The next generation of leaders! Over the past six months, these students have explored the world of STEM careers, from standing beneath the towering blades of wind farms to visiting mining sites, experimenting with robotics, and getting hands-on with metal fabrication and materials handling. A journey that has built their confidence and expanded their horizons of possibilities. A big thank you to the Geelong Manufacturing Council for enabling this transformative initiative across Central Victoria, and for continuing to champion diversity and inclusion in Australia’s future workforce. #STEMEducation #WomenInSTEM #FutureWorkforce #Manufacturing #Engineering #Innovation #Education #GeelongManufacturingCouncil #Ballarat #RegionalVictoria #STEMCareers #BugBox

We exist to close the gap between the classroom and the workplace, and it’s powerful to see that story told on WIN News. At Bendigo Tech School’s Entrepreneurial Edge, students tackled real industry challenges and discovered just how capable they already are. Curiosity becomes confidence. Ideas become careers.

On Monday, Grade 6 students at St Mary of the Cross, Point Cook, stepped into the future of cyber education, presented by Deakin Cyber Research and Innovation Centre. Excited by the VR headsets and curious about the gaming experience, the students embarked on an immersive quest to protect their privacy and stay safe online. It was rewarding to see keen young minds engage so enthusiastically — asking great questions, collaborating, and reflecting on their online choices. A huge thank you to the staff and researchers at Deakin University for making this possible, and to the school for embracing new ways of building cyber resilience in young learners. If your school is looking to bring immersive cyber safety training to students, I’d be glad to connect and share more about this experience. #CyberSafety #VR #EdTech #DigitalCitizenship #Privacy #OnlineSafety #STEMEducation #ImmersiveLearning #StudentEngagement #DeakinCyber #BugBox #FutureReadyKids
✨ That’s a wrap! ✨ A huge thank you to WynBay LLEN, and Danni Angelevski for trusting BUGBOX to deliver a robotics-powered work experience program across Wyndham City Council and Hobsons Bay City Council. We were always very kindly supported at the Wyndham Tech School by Sam Nikolsky, and his incredible team! In 2025, we welcomed 78 students from 13 high schools into our program, and we’re thrilled that the students gave us a 92% engagement rating 🎉 This result shows just how powerful hands-on, future-focused learning can be when schools, the community, and industry come together. Here’s to inspiring the next generation of innovators 🚀 #Bugbox #WynBayLLEN #Robotics #STEMEducation #FutureOfWork #StudentEngagement #Wyndham #HobsonsBay #WorkExperience #InnovationInEducation #CareerPathways
It’s nerve-racking 😨 but unforgettable! Today, Bendigo Tech School felt like a movie set 🎬, with media interviews, bright lights, and high-stakes rehearsals. A huge thanks to Lina Z. and WINNEWS for spotlighting our reimagined work experience program tonight. #OneTake Most of all, I’m proud of our students 🙌. They faced the pressure head-on, problem-solved on the fly, and brought their ideas to life. Tomorrow, the final pitch happens: 52 guests, peers, and industry leaders packed into a standing-room-only showcase. The energy is going to be electric ⚡. #Bendigo #FutureTalent #SkillsForTomorrow #WorkExperienceReimagined #STEMeducation #YouthInnovation #ProudMoment
