High Potential & Gifted Learners Program

HP&G Thinking Like Elon Musk: Creative & Entrepreneurial Thinking Program

Does your child have an interest and a vision for the future of transportation?

As an extension of our HP&G Thinking Like Elon Musk: Creative & Entrepreneurial Thinking program, SJPC is offering the opportunity to participate in a workshop about the future of transportation. This is offered to all students from Years 7-10 but spaces are limited.

The Transforming Transport Project, a collaboration between Young Change Agents (YCA) and Southern Cross University, will take place in Week 3, Term 4. The program will develop students' social and green entrepreneurship mindset, design thinking skills, innovation, and 21st-century skills as they reimagine transport that benefits people and the planet.

This fully funded program provides students with an opportunity to develop their entrepreneurial skills by thinking outside the box to create solutions to real-life issues relating to transport. The participants will be challenged to think creatively and critically, further developing their entrepreneurial mindsets, skillsets and toolsets for success. They will expand their understanding of digital technologies and benefit from mentors and expertise from Southern Cross University with their focus on sustainability, innovation, and technology. Students will have their eyes opened to potential pathways they never knew were possible.  

The top two teams from the 1-day program will have the opportunity to progress to a 2 day Youth Incubator (YINC).

Register your interest via this link: Transforming Transport Workshop by the beginning of Week 7, Monday 28 August 2023. Email Mr Dewhurst if you have any questions. Space is limited, so ensure you explain your interest in detail.
