Ballarat High School Energy Breakthrough Program


Location
Ballarat High School
About
Energy Breakthrough is an annual STEM focussed challenge where schools from across Australia congregate in Maryborough to challenge each other to a race, with a vehicle which students have designed and built from scratch.
Ballarat High School’s Rat Pack each year includes students from every year level who construct a vehicle to compete in the human powered division. Our students collaborate and extend themselves to develop their creations during every spare lunch-break and after-school session, before ultimately competing on race day in front of a crowd of 30,000.
This year’s event takes place from 19–23 November, and we’re reaching out to our community for help.

4. The Dream: Our ultimate goal is to purchase a trailer to transport our vehicles. Get in touch to discuss sponsorship opportunities.
