Standard student sessions run for 45 minutes. Teacher workshops and workplace sessions can be delivered as 45-minute sessions or extended workshops depending on the school timetable.
How many students can attend?
Student sessions are designed for up to 30 students per group. Larger groups, year-level rotations and special events can be quoted separately.
Do you bring equipment?
