December 2011
In its role as a group of professional educators and teachers promoting agriculture and aquaculture opportunities via science based careers, PICSE continues to provide input to the National Curriculum. It is timely to advise our partners that the implementation of the Australian Curriculum in mathematics and science up to Year 10 is underway. As there has never been a serious opportunity to argue for including agriculture as a subject in its own right, PICSE has been strategically working with teachers to produce a range of primary industry relevant resource material exemplars and content for use by teachers in science classrooms across the Nation.

October 2011
The University of Western Australia (UWA) hosted the second PICSE National Advisory Board (NAB) meeting in early September and considered a range of new program and strategic implications stemming from the Think Tank presentations and discussions. One of these new directions considered was the development of a PICSE Alumnus.
At the Think Tank in June, the strongest collective message from the PICSE students was to “maintain engagement”. These young people wished to maintain the PICSE industry linkages and build a vibrant national student network while at university. This can be interpreted in many ways, but on closer examination, it refers to a formal and structured Alumnus. To read more please click here.
The Board consists of members from Industry and University. To view the biographies of the board please click here.
