The CSA Mine recently made a donation to Cobar High School to help fund the school’s trip to Newcastle for students to participate in the Science & Engineering State Championships. As part of the excursion, the students were able to spend an extra day and gain trade experience by visiting a leading engineering company in the STEM field. It was a great opportunity for students to see what goes on first hand and hopefully created further interest in the area of engineering. One of the aims of the excursion was to increase students’ engagement in STEM, which CSA supports and is happy to promote to students as possible future careers. Upon their return from the excursion, Cobar High students Katie Nicholson, Kelsey Neve and Hayden Nicholson gave a presentation about their trip and their participation in the championships to members of CSA Management team (pictured above). ▪ Photo contributed
