Science Talent Search

Each year the Science Talent Search (STS) celebrates the imagination and scientific thinking of Victorian primary and secondary students, offering opportunities to investigate, innovate, and showcase their work across a variety of topics and disciplines.

Celebrating 75 years of inspiring curiosity, innovation, and scientific thinking in students across Victoria, this year’s STS explores the theme Seeds of Science – Nurturing knowledge for all, encouraging students to see science as a living, evolving process. Just as seeds need the right conditions to grow, knowledge flourishes when it is nurtured, shared, and applied to real-world challenges. Students are invited to plant ideas, ask questions, and develop projects that demonstrate curiosity, creativity, and collaboration.

24 Years 3 to 6 students have committed to participating in STS this year and have chosen the project they would like to complete. 

Science Talent Search projects must be completed and are due to Mr Zhang and Ms Noornot later than Friday 24 July (end of week 2 Term 3). Projects must be provided via a USB stick (no passwords), GoogleDrive or email with a link to a similar file-sharing program. No late submissions or refunds will be possible.
