The Power Challenge
Student Hub

Haere mai, welcome to the Power Challenge!

Are you ready to harness the amazing potential of renewable energy to light up a community? From towering turbines, to solar panels soaking up the rays of te rā (the sun), innovators across the world are reimagining how to generate electricity in more sustainable ways – and now it’s your turn.

Supported by your kaiako (teacher) and Wonder Project Ambassador, your task is to create your own wind turbine, generate electricity, and light up all the buildings in your class’ mini town. You’ll need to use teamwork and creativity to keep the lights on, the kura (schools) open and the hospitals running. Karawhiua!

Welcome to your Power Challenge Learning Hub. Over the course of the challenge, you’ll work through the Learning Hub, completing each module and plenty of power-packed activities, to help you shine a light on the challenge pātai (question):

I wonder how we can power a brighter future?
