We remember when TOM was young,
me and Tombat had so much fun.
Holding paws and chasing dreams,
building ideas in clever teams.
But the biggest kick we ever got,
was doin' a thing called Crocodile Rock,
while the other kids were rocking round the clock
we were hopping and bopping to the Crocodile Rock!
Team SA can't wait for October to head to Darwin for the International Final hosted by Tournament of Minds NT 💙💛❤️

Students from Clare High School had an absolute blast at Adelaide University Mawson Lakes campus today to participate in STEM for Humanity. Firstly, they used GPS technologies as we explored the campus to find useful, fund and interesting things a university student might need and then created a map from the data. Next, they did some 3D printing to find a solution designed to fix water infrastructure when a disaster happens. Lastly, there was a little friendly competition to design the best water filter with a number of challenging factors with budget being a big one. Thanks a great day!
