Student Showcase
Throughout the country New Zealand students are producing Technology project work of exceptional innovation, design and craft. Techlink's Student Showcase pages celebrate some of these students' achievements and successes.
Student projects featured here cover a wide range – from Year 13 students designing and creating a window display for Te Papa promoting an international event in the capital through to the exceptional craftmanship of a Year 11 student designing and making a drinks trolley for his father; from the redesign of wet-weather gear for wheelchair users through to designing and creating a unique ballet costume.
All demonstrate innovation and excellence and show that New Zealand's future will be in good hands!
New students and their projects will be added on a monthly basis, so bookmark this page and check it out often.
If you have a technology student of any age who has displayed excellence in a recent project Techlink is interested in hearing about it. To view a .pdf guideline for submitting Student Showcase drafts click here. For more information please contact Hazel Slade, email [email protected].
