Hub exhibition out of this world

Otago Polytechnic has played host to more than 40 vibrant and visionary projects developed by school pupils.

The Otākou STEAM Cluster has been running the 'Mission to Mars' project this year, partnering with NASA to explore living on Mars.

Having identified two key themes – Community and Journeys – project organisers tasked students with exploring these issues and developing prototypes.

Students from several classrooms across various Dunedin schools (years 0-8) have been involved, their efforts culminating in a public exhibition at Otago Polytechnic’s Hub this week.

The young learners were aided by input from Otago Polytechnic academics, who had developed a series of webinars that included design and architecture tips.
