Curtin University will host the competition at their Bentley campus on Tuesday 16^th June 2026. Teachers are invited to register teams from their schools.

For all teams competing in the WA competition, the analysis is as follows:

"The analysis involves preparation of a standard solution of potassium hydrogen phthalate (KHP) (provided), standardisation of a NaOH solution, and titration of a second sample of KHP (the ‘Unknown’). Judging is on the values reported for the amount of KHP in the unknown sample."

Please note:

• Teams comprise of three students.
• Each student performs their own individual titration/analysis; individual results are then combined for team scoring.
• Schools must select the appropriate ticket type when registering (use of university equipment or their own equipment).
• Schools using their own equipment are responsible for its transport, handling, and care.
• Due to high demand, schools may initially register up to 2 teams only at this venue. Schools wishing to register additional teams may request to be placed on a waitlist by contacting the organiser (vicky.barnett@curtin.edu.au). If spaces remain at the registration close date, these will be offered to schools on the waitlist.
• Schools are responsible for the safe transport and supervision of their students in line with their excursion procedures. Students should not move around campus unaccompanied.
• No catering will be provided for students or teachers.
• As schools may also compete at other venues or in their own schools, results will not be announced on the day.
• Further information will be provided to registered schools by the event organiser or a delegate from the host campus.

Registration for the Curtin Bentley campus event will close on Friday 29th May 2026.
