School Activities

veski’s inspiring students (& teachers) program provides unique professional development opportunities for teachers, and access to real world science experiences for students.

The program draws on the networks and experience of the veski family and the veski connection to inspire innovation across Victoria, working with teachers and students from three regional Victorian schools, to lift the participation rates in the sciences.

Activities include presentations and workshops on site at each school, student excursions to visit science labs and locations across Victoria and professional development for teachers including conferences, training and resources.
