ATSIAP is an academic challenge-based competition for high-achieving Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander state high school students. The program incorporates culturally responsive teaching and learning opportunities and develops students’ creativity and critical thinking skills by challenging them to investigate solutions to real-world challenges. 2025 is the first time James Nash has participated in the challenge.
We want to thank and congratulate our 2025 ATSIAP team, Pheobe, Tyler and Tayla-Jane for their participation and submissions for the 2025 Regional Senior ATSIAP Challenge. The judges were impressed with the quality of entries this year.
The top two overall winners are determined by a culmination of points and are eligible to participate in the 2025 State Final ATSIAP Challenge and attend the State Final Event. Our team only just missed out on making the State Final, placing 3rd overall.
