Hey Thunkers -

I’m excited to announce that we are hosting a competition for high school students this summer.

Challenge: Build a Thunkable app to solve a challenge in your local community!

Prizes:
First Place: $600 USD
Second Place: $400 USD
Third Place: $250 USD

Registration opens on June 15th!

I know the majority of you are not high school students and I don’t want you to be disappointed that you don’t qualify for this specific competition. We will be hosting many more competitions in the future! This is the first of many.

@amrita In the Netherlans we have a totaly different School System:

Primary School: Age 4 - 12
Secondary School:

  • VMBO Age 12 - 16
  • HAVO Age 12 - 17
  • VWO Age 12 - 18

After my VMBO I go to MBO, that is to learn for a profession. That is where I go next year. Which grade do I need to select?

Little doubt:

I’m 16 years old (born on 2001). I’ve finished my compulsory education in Spain, but I will do International Baccalaureate, so I will still been studying at HighSchool
Also, in my country, HighSchool includes Baccalaureate even it’s not compulsory

Can a team with partners at the same situation than me participate?

EDIT

Sorry, I understood it was UNTIL 9th grade instead of FROM 9th grade

I can participate :blush:

I know different countries have different grades, etc, so if there is any confusion, please just email me and I’ll let you know if you qualify.
