Our dedicated partners enable us to do more, reach more, engage more and inspire more, every day. These partnerships continue to help us bring the very best in STEM, interactive learning and positive futures to all Western Australians.
With your support, we’re re-inventing STEM engagement and reshaping the delivery of our vision in the digital age.
Our partnerships play an important role in helping to transform lives, empower communities, diversify our economy and develop our future workforce.
We invite you to share in our successes on this journey.
Partnered by Rio Tinto
Scitech’s partnership with Rio Tinto enables us to take our unique STEM engagement out of the Science Centre at City West and on the road (and sometimes the airways) to visit every regional and remote community across the state.
Our Statewide team deliver a variety of experiences that range from primary school science shows and workshops to early learning programs, secondary school career festivals, shopping centre visits, community shows and DIY science kits.
This activity positively contributes to the engagement of over 500,000 West Australians in STEM every year.
We are proud of the impact our work has on WA children in shaping their futures. We’ve captured this in a short video story as seen through the eyes of our Statewide presenters.
Supported by Chevron and Rio Tinto since 2007.
These interactive, hands-on workshops have been developed with a cultural awareness of the people and landscapes of our regional and remote Aboriginal communities. Programs include student workshops and DIY Science Kits for primary and secondary students, with a strong focus on literacy and numeracy
AEP DIY Science Kits are fully self-contained classroom resources – providing teachers with all the equipment and information to run engaging and relevant lessons.
Scitech has been working in partnership with Alcoa to support primary school teachers to improve their confidence and ability to facilitate deeper learning of mathematical concepts through the Alcoa Maths Enrichment Program, which has directly impacted more than 10,000 teachers, students and parents across the Kwinana, Peel and Upper South-West regions since its inception in 2012.
The Mitsui Intensive Robotics Program aims to develop capacity in robotics and STEM in Pilbara schools, through provision of both educational resources and face-to-face teacher support delivered by the Scitech Professional Learning team.
Since 2018 Scitech has partnered with Shell to deliver their global science, technology, engineering and maths program NXplorers.
NXplorers promotes an ‘agent of change’ mentality by challenging students to create relevant, realistic and positive solutions to issues facing their communities.
