The DSBN has inventive, driven, and highly creative students across our secondary schools.

And to showcase their talents – and put their skills to the test – students competed in our 23rd annual DSBN's Technological Skills Challenge, with competitions in the skilled trades like robotics, coding, the culinary arts, graphic design, welding, precision machining, auto service technology, baking, carpentry, floristry, photography and many more.

Dozens of students moved on to compete provincially at the Skills Ontario Competition, and we are pleased to congratulate all our medalists!
