The Design Club Drone Project

Nestled inconspicuously on a shelf within a Technologies classroom lies a surprising, modern Object of Substance, an artifact, a small piece representative of a moment in time in the recent history of Brisbane Girls Grammar School. In it, tradition meets the ever-pressing future. “The drone project” developed by a group of 2019 Design Club students (Julie Lu 2021, Poppy Davison 2021, Dain Kim 2021, Francesca Arcibal 2021, Joanna Hyslop 2021, and Georgia Docherty 2021) stands as an example of innovation and student-led exploration. This project, more than just an after-school activity, represents the spirit of inquiry and the convergence of the school’s most contemporary technology tools into a rich learning experience.
