Junior Science Olympiad Representative Off to Thailand!

Elliot Sunderland

We are very proud to announce that Elliot Sunderland has been selected to represent Australia at the upcoming International Junior Science Olympiad in Thailand from December 1st to 10th, 2023. Carefully chosen after a rigorous selection process, the Australian team consists of six students who participated in the Junior Science Olympiad program throughout 2023. The International Junior Science Olympiad is a globally recognised competition, held annually, that features the best and the brightest young science students from over 70 countries around the world. It is an exciting opportunity for students under the age of 16 to explore their interest in science. Through challenging theoretical and practical tests across various scientific disciplines, competitors will be encouraged to think critically, experiment and solve problems. Not only does this competition encourage students to develop their talents, it also provides an environment for students to connect with people from unique backgrounds and experience different cultures.

Elliot has had the support of his two incredible parents, his friends and the many Science teachers who encouraged him to be curious and seek knowledge and have encouraged him along his journey. We would like to congratulate him for his dedication and reaching this stage and wish him all the best in his preparation!
