Do you want to win computer tablets for your team members, $1,000 for your school and an overnight trip to Sydney?
The Regionate Challenge is hoping to hear from you, with registrations now open.

Students develop their ideas through online weekly challenges starting May 7 across four weeks, with the help of mentors from Sydney's Innovation Hub.

Innovation Program Coordinator Nicholas Stevens said that the program gives students the chance to "understand innovation and work collaboratively in teams."
"They get to come up with ideas that have a social impact," he said.
"The challenge will provide essential skillsets."
Students will then have a core part of their idea "eliminated", to give them the opportunity modify it.
Bomaderry High School and The Riverina Anglican College were declared the winners of last year's competition.
Registrations close Wednesday May 12.
