MORE THAN JUST STEM
At The Learning Partnership, we believe that learning extends far beyond textbooks and traditional classroom settings. The RTTL Challenge isn't just another STEM competition; it’s a journey that shapes young minds into future innovators, leaders, and collaborative thinkers.
WHY RTTL?
The RTTL Challenge is specifically designed to engage Year 7 students in a thrilling educational experience that balances the rigors of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics with crucial life skills. Through this challenge, students are not only introduced to fundamental scientific principles but are also immersed in an environment that fosters substantial personal and emotional growth. And it’s fun!
