Project Podcast: Recent Episodes
Sarah Gee
Project Podcast is a student based initiative for the school community by the school community. The purpose of this podcast is to educate, entertain and provide support based on a series of topics relevant our school community, such as practical life skills, information for students that may provide some guidance in their transition to adulthood and insight into student and teacher life.
Thank you for tuning in to the second episode of Project Podcast! During today’s episode, we will be diving into the world of science, technology, engineering, arts and maths. Through relecting on our own STEAM journeys, we will be looking to examine the imbalance of women and men we have observed in these fields and explore how we can encourage more students (particularly females) to get involved in STEAM!
Again, a special thank you to Telisha Onley for the lovely intro music! 🎶
