Kieran Nolan from Wooranna Park Primary School dropped in to the bitcoin center today to chat with us about some of the many projects his school is involved in. He focuses on fun ways to include students in relevant technologies like cryptocurrencies, his school has a spaceship, and the students are involved in global minecraft projects.

Together with Paul Ayling we chatted about potential uses for the blockchain in education and the difference it's already making in Australia's education system.
