Description
Schools from Catholic Education South Australia are invited to participate in CESA STEM MAD 2026, promoting and celebrating STEM learning in Years 3 to 12. CESA STEM MAD is designed to acknowledge STEM learning initiatives that use design thinking to address real-world problems and demonstrate how students in Catholic schools take action that matters by designing a service, product or innovation to make a difference (MAD) to others or the environment.
Over Semester 1, schools are invited to support their students to develop STEM MAD solutions. Schools can then nominate up to 3 school teams for CESA STEM MAD.
There are two CESA STEM MAD categories student teams may enter:
- Primary Years (Years 3-6)
- Secondary Years (Years 7-12)
Further information about CESA STEM MAD can be found on the CESA STEM MAD CESAShare Hub.
In Term 2, registered STEM MAD facilitators will receive an email giving access to a protected school folder, to upload the CESA STEM MAD video entries. Further information will be provided to support your facilitator and students in completing and uploading their films.
In registering to participate in CESA STEM MAD, you acknowledge that your school will be providing one or more team entries for CESA STEM MAD 2026. Please complete this form to ensure you receive all further communications regarding STEM MAD.
