Be Inspired - Regional Bursary 

Are you a regional science educator who wants to celebrate the excitement of science, scientific discovery, and science education? 
There's no need to apply anymore, you are welcome to join in any 7 Decades in 7 Days events during the National Science Week 2021. The Be Inspired bursary was established to provide an opportunity for regional science teachers to attend NSW Science Teachers Association 2021 National Science Week celebrations. These high-profile events recognise science and educational advancements in Australia and celebrate the dedication of science teachers across New South Wales. Supported by Inspiring Australia, the Be Inspired bursaries are providing a unique opportunity for regional science educators to attend these celebrations. Access to these events will ensure regional science teachers are able to broaden their professional network thus creating deeper community connections with their colleagues. This is an exciting chance for regional science teachers to gain insights into our world class scientific and cultural institutions, while being immersed in cutting edge science.
