Program Insight

"Given we live in a rural community, this program was delivered as a virtual and online offering. It was embedded into our curriculum and gave students the opportunity to reflect on their renewable energy future in our local town context. The students were engaged throughout every lesson and the Teacher PD supported my classroom delivery. The Bendigo Tech School staff were very knowledgeable and it was a brilliant program.”
