Home educated students can choose to enter a variety of local, state, national and international competitions throughout the year. Home ed kids, as individuals or as teams, have participated (often successfully) in competitions such as FIRST Lego League, Parliament Prize, Australian Mathematics Competition, Australian Geography Competition and more. Home ed kids have also enjoyed Scout awards, The Duke of Edinburgh International Award, and CREST.

We have compiled a list of competitions, awards and challenges for your convenience. Please note that during 2020, many have not run or may change the way they run in the future.
