These school holidays come and spend two jam-packed, full days of fun to design and build products to transform your house to be more sustainable.

You will learn alongside three teams of innovators including;

• The University of Queensland Ventures Discovery team;
• smart composting startup Monty Compost Co; and
• technology startup Micromelon Robotics.

You will have the opportunity to use design thinking methodologies to create innovative ideas and then use robotics, programming, app design and hardware solutions, to prototype and build your sustainable house solutions.

During the two days, you will learn how to develop an innovative product by working with our entrepreneurs to turn your ideas into reality.

This event is restricted to school Years 7-9.
