yia! is a great opportunity for Year 7-13 WBOP students to apply innovation through collaboration and come up with an idea to make the world a better place. It is about creating tomorrow’s innovators in local schools and preparing our future workforce with the skills they need to compete in a rapidly changing work environment.
