Caroline Chisholm School Centre for Innovation & Learning
STEM education for students and teachers
“It is estimated that 75% of the fastest growing occupations require skills in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM). The Caroline Chisholm School, Centre for Innovation and Learning is the first ACT Government Educational Facility built to deliver STEM education for students and teachers. The Centre has multi-use science laboratory facilities for chemical, biological and physical science activities, technology, robotics and 3D printing laboratory facilities, areas for design and construction, small group and large showcase events areas. The Centre incorporates the latest electronic technologies to support educators in delivering STEM based curriculum, as well as developing student’s innovative and inquisitive ideas in order for them to reach their full potential. Since opening, the Centre has been heavily utilised by the school, as well as by the wider Tuggeranong Network of schools for both student education and professional development for ACT Government educators. The Centre has also won the Enrico Taglietti Educational Architecture Award at the 2018 ACT Architecture Awards, and was also shortlisted for the 2018 Master Builders Australia Excellence Awards under the Commercial Building less than $5M category.”
