GWSC ‘Year 9 Research Scientists’ win CSIRO ‘CREST’ Awards!

We would like to congratulate three of our spectacular ‘Student Research Groups’ who have attained 'Creativity in Research, Engineering, Science and Technology' Awards from the CSIRO in recognition of the outstanding research inquiries they engaged in throughout ‘Year 9 Research Science’ this year.

Kudos to the following 2025 CSIRO ‘CREST’ Award recipients – Diya Balapure, Sahana Chokappa, Sophie Law, Wania Saqib, Louay Benaoum, Harry Devin, Anuram Kathirgamarajah, Elakiyan Manimaran & Alexander Zhao

The CSIRO ‘CREST’ Program aims to develop students’ inquiry skills within a broad range of areas associated with Science, Technology and Engineering. Students are encouraged to develop, practice and apply skills and capacities associated with critical and creative thinking, ethical understandings, occupational health and safety, environmental impact, scientific literacy, scepticism and emerging technologies.

Our nine ‘CREST’ Award recipients have been recognised by the CSIRO for their excellence, commitment and perseverance within the classroom and also the laboratory. Well done on receiving this award from the CSIRO, you should all be very proud of your endeavours and achievements!

#ScienceIsEverywhere!

Kind Regards,

Mr Mark Robinson.
