Penrith High School Bring Home State Professional Championship for F1 in Schools

F1 in Schools
April 20, 2023

Last month, Arlon Graphics in conjunction with Graphic Art Mart  launched their newest product, Premium Colour Change. It is the first colour vinyl wrap film in their portfolio and features over 20 unforgettable colours in a range of different finishes. Featuring FLITE technology, installation is a dream with its excellent repositionability, conformability and clean removability.

 

To celebrate the launch of one of this year’s most anticipated product, Graphic Art Mart and Arlon collaborated on a series of four events across Australia. Shrouded in secrecy, customers were invited to dress up for a night of glitz and treated with champagne, canapes, live DJs and even a dumpling station.

However, the real showstopper of the night was the unveiling of the Premium Colour Change Wrap.

 

 

F1 in Schools is one of the world’s most prominent student competition in STEM. Integrating areas of science, technology, engineering and mathematics in order to create the world’s fastest miniature car. With more than 17,000 schools across 51 different nation competing each year in this program, students must take on the role to design, analyse, test, make and race. This challenge focuses on creating an environment which allows them to apply STEM philosophy by solving real world problems, in turn, building their skills in problem solving, project management, communication, presentation, teamwork, innovation, self-promotion, collaboration, marketing and entrepreneurialism.

 

Graphic Art Mart are incredibly proud to sponsor NSW State Professional Champions, Penrith High School for the past four years. Every year, Graphic Art Mart help assist the school by helping to organise  and provide the graphics for the renowned stand. This year, the focus was on creating a stand that utilised more environmentally sustainable options.
