EPro8 is a problem-solving challenge where teams use basic electrical circuits, building materials and everyday objects to solve problems.

The objective is to complete as many problems as possible in the time allowed. The teams train during Terms 1 and 2  at school and compete in heats against other schools in Term 3 for a chance to make it to the grand final. This group provides students to collaborate and work together to face a series of challenges, developing communication and critical thinking skills while working under time pressure. For students who love a challenge and the opportunity to think outside the box, this group is the perfect place to meet likeminded students and see just how creative they can be.
