2026 Highlights:

A group of approximately 14 Canberra Secondary School students in red polo shirts proudly display certificates from what appears to be a mathematics challenge competition. They are posed in two rows outdoors at the school. A male teacher on the far left gives a thumbs up, and a female teacher in a hijab stands on the far right. A school values banner reading "Empathy, Honour, Diligence, Integrity, Harmony" is visible in the background.

Our Programmes:

Five Canberra Secondary School students in blue uniforms huddle around a colourful custom board game laid out on a table. One student wearing a face mask stands and points at the board, while the others lean in to observe. A tablet is propped up at the edge of the table, suggesting the game incorporates QR codes or digital elements.
A young male student in a light blue polo shirt holds up a 3D geometric shape constructed from interlocking purple and blue transparent plastic pieces, resembling a house or prism structure. He looks at the model with focus. Other students and a classroom setting are visible in the background.
Three Canberra Secondary School students in red polo shirts use a measuring tape to measure the height of a concrete wall outdoors. One student holds the tape at the top of the wall, another holds it at the base while crouching, and a third observes closely. A green sports field and chain-link fence are visible in the background, suggesting a real-world mathematics or science measurement activity.
