The display is open to the public from 10am to 4pm today (Tuesday) through to Friday, November 28 when the prize giving ceremony will held at 6pm to 6.30pm.
Students' work from local high schools from Gloucester, Bulahdelah, Tuncurry-Forster, Taree and Wingham will be showcased.
With a proud 24 year history, the display is organised and run by the local group of dedicated technology teachers from public and private high schools.
Students' work from years seven to 12 will be on display, encompassing many and varied innovative and imaginative projects. Major prizes will be awarded to the winners of many categories, including junior mandatory technology through to senior design and technology subjects. Projects will include areas of wood working, metal working, design, engineering, graphics, electronics, furniture, textiles and many more.
Each year there is a 'People's Choice Award' presented to the student whose project is deemed to be the best by the general viewing public.
The process will be to fill out a 'best project ticket' when visiting the display and enter it into the collection box at the display.
The entries will be counted on the Friday evening just before the prize giving.
The student's work on display could be a relative or close friend of yours, and you can show your support of local schools and students by spending a few minutes to drop in and have a look at the wonderful work created which is on display just across the road from the RTA office.
