To make the selection process fair we recommend running your own solar school competition.

1. Choose a space which will have uninterpreted sunlight during the competition time
2. Build a track – see the how-to videos and guides for support
3. Put your students into teams of 4
4. Get them to assemble the car and test in 1 hour
5. Get them to race off in a first past the post style competition
6. Run it as a knock out event until you are left with 1 winning team to submit to the competition heat
7. Promote what you have done to your school community, STEM is important and should be showcased.

*some schools may have the option to have more than 1 team in the competition. Check the media form page for details.
