Discovery challenges (ages 10-14)


Typically completed by 10-14 year olds, students work collaboratively on a five hour project or challenge in self-managed groups. During the project, they use a CREST Discovery passport to record and reflect on their work. Afterwards, students communicate their findings as a group presentation.

Each pack provides teaching guides, kit lists, example timetables and suggested starter activities to help you run your day. Find out more about CREST Discovery Awards.

There are more CREST approved resources that have been developed by our partners and providers specific to your region.

Key things to remember

Key things to remember 2. For your education materials • Be creative, children are more likely to remember something presented in an interesting, fun way. • Do your research to get key facts and figures. • 8-11 year olds in Kenya may have low levels of literacy. • Make sure your main messages stand out. • Consider using more than one way of getting your message across. Game, poster, song, play etc.

What do they do in Kenya? • Engineers in Kenya have come up with a simple design for a hand washing station which is widely used and looks like this… • It’s called a ‘Tippy Tap’. It only dispenses water, it doesn’t collect it. • How does your model compare to this? Do you think your model is better?
