Solar cars and great students

Sustainability

This morning I met the Willetton Secondary High School team from Perth arriving in their solar car, Solar Flair , from Darwin. The car had travelled 906 kilometres under solar power. It was driven by 4 of the adults travelling with a group of twenty four 12 to 15 year old gifted and talented students. Each student had played a part in preparing the car for the Challenge and each of them had a role to play on the trip from Darwin to Adelaide to keep a record of the journey. One 13 year old boy told me he had worked on the electrics but he was really a computer geek! I heard that along the way he had shown the Michigan State University team how to download some information they were wanting. Great hope for our solar future.
