many opportunities it offers to females. The day will start with an information session followed by a
robotics workshop. The final segment of the day will be a series of challenges with increasing levels of
difficulty. </span></p><p><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; "><em><strong>The Robogals Robotics competition is an excursion that I have taken students to for a couple of years. The students from each school don’t stay together as a team which is fantastic because they are then encouraged to meet other students who are interested in science and work with them to solve the various problems that they are given. It is a really valued part of our curriculum because the students are at a university campus, working with engineering students who are great role models, and doing science that is fun and challenging. It ticks all the boxes for encouraging students to continue with Science into VCE.</strong></em></span></p><p><span style="font-size: 12.000000pt; font-family: 'ArialMT'"><p style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: -webkit-auto; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; ">Jo Kennedy – Head of Science Presentation College Windsor</p><p style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: -webkit-auto; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; "><br></p><p style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: -webkit-auto; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; ">Thank you.</p><p style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: -webkit-auto; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; "><div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 14px; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium; font-family: 'Lucida Handwriting'; "><i>Georgene</i></span></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 14px; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: medium; "><br></span></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 14px; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: medium; ">Georgene Bridgeman – CEO </span></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 14px; "><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: medium; ">Akorn Educational Services<br>M 0412 339 553<br>W <a href="http://www.AKORN.com.au/">www.AKORN.com.au</a></span></div><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 14px; "><img src="cid:02D670A4-2AA2-4E29-8B25-27360541A7E1" type="image/png"></div><div><p class="MsoNormal" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; "><span style="font-size: 8pt; color: rgb(136, 136, 136); ">A partnership between Akorn, Santa Maria College and The University of Melbourne ARC Centre for </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(136, 136, 136); font-size: 11px; ">Coherent X-ray Science was the Victorian Winner of the NAB Schools First Award in 2009 for the </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: rgb(136, 136, 136); font-size: 11px; ">Growing Tall Poppies Program.</span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; "><span style="font-size: 8pt; color: rgb(136, 136, 136); "> </span><span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS'; "> <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; "><span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS'; "><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; "><b><span style="font-size: 10pt; color: blue; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS'; ">Please consider the environment before printing this email.</span></b></p></div></div></p><p style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: -webkit-auto; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; "><br></p><p style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: -webkit-auto; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; "><br></p></span></p></div></div></body></html>
