Explore our learning resources about the power of water and connect with the past, present and future of the Snowy Scheme.
The Snowy STEM Academy is an interactive online learning portal featuring learning modules that align with the Australian curriculum. Students can discover the Scheme’s past, present and future and hear some of the stories behind the engineering, the science and our people. The Snowy STEM Academy will ignite students’ imagination and expand their knowledge about curriculum including geography, STEM, history and social science subjects.
With a range of teacher and classroom resources including factsheets, activity sheets and hands-on activities, students will be able to complete a full lesson on an aspect of the Snowy Scheme, or supplement a pre-planned lesson with activities across a range of subject matter. A variety of lesson plans that link directly with Scootle tie the relevant learning resources together.
