The activity at PWS
Ideas that go somewhere
Today’s students are tomorrow’s creators, founders and problem-solvers. At PWS they learn to tell stories with sound and video, sell an idea in sixty seconds, and pitch a business – or a solution for the planet – to a panel of judges.
Along the way they learn teamwork, planning, public speaking and how to take feedback.
