Tech Challenge Wednesday 18th Block 5!!!!

Dear Grade 6-10 Students,

Technology Challenge is upon us again! Tech Challenge is about championing the model of Design Thinking that we at NIS keenly promote. At the end of lunchtime Wednesday students should store bags in lockers and then line up outside the library foyer in single file lines (note change in meeting point). ‘Teachers in charge’ will take you straight to your activity area, divide you up into houses and explain your activities. House points go to the most successful competitors! Wear your house t-shirt!

Good luck and see you then!
