Students' model car judged world's best :

"A lightning-fast model car has won a group of Melbourne high school students an international design award and $1.5m in university scholarships."

The students of Trinity Grammar in Melbourne can be well pleased with this win. The article makes them sound very unassuming, which no doubt they are. Give kids a challenge and something really absorbing and they will lose themselves in it and come up trumps. The students have won a trophy and a 3 year scholarship to study automotive engineering in London...$1.5 million dollars worth of prizes. I am certain the teachers who helped them and the parents who suported them will be thrilled to bits for them. Team efforts make the difference and we spend a lot of time criticizing youth at a loose end, but just look what they can do once given the chance and support. This is so fantastic and this kind of model building and robotics seems to be the sort of thing which young Australians are excelling at.
