Category 1-4 disadvantaged schools - 10% discount.

For 12 years Mobile Science Education has been the only organisation of its kind to offer significant discounts to disadvantaged schools, despite receiving no government funding or grants.
We would like to be able to offer similar discounts to regional schools, but we can't do that without government support.
If you would like to see regional students get the same opportunities as others, please click here and let the SA Minister for Education know.
