Being a STEM superstar is awesome – ready to inspire the next generation?

The Wonder Project is Engineering New Zealand’s free programme for schools, designed to get young Kiwis excited about careers in STEM: science, technology, engineering and maths.

If you're a STEM professional, they’d love you to join their network of Wonder Project Ambassadors. During Term 2, they need 800 volunteers to visits local schools for an hour a week and help students build and fly water rockets. You’ll support teachers in the classroom to demystify Newton’s laws of motion and show young Kiwis how awesome STEM is!

It’s the fun way to earn continuing professional development hours, so get involved.
