Implementing STEM using drones in a state high school
Trinity Bay State High School is an independent public school for students in years 7 to 12. The school offers Excellence programs in Science and the Arts for years 7 to 10 and has a strong STEM focus (or STEAM, to include the Arts). Collaboration between heads of department in Science, Technology and Mathematics, and with teachers of those subjects, started our drone journey at Trinity Bay.
