The Future Anything Challenge

The Future Anything Challenge is a 20-lesson innovation program for Years 5 to 12 — taught by your teachers, in your classrooms, inside the subjects you already run. You pick one of six “missions” and across three phases of learning, students pick a real-world problem, build a real solution, and showcase their ideas in front of real people.

Student
Canterbury College, QLD
"It felt like giving my students a real-life "shark tank" experience — pitching their own ideas in a high-energy, fast-paced environment. It was an exciting opportunity for them to think creatively and work collaboratively.”
Teacher
Cecil Andrews College, WA
“This workshop was hands-down the most useful and inspiring Professional Learning I have attended in many years.”
Teacher

​“Future Anything completely changed the trajectory of my life. It showed me I didn’t need permission to make an impact and gave me the confidence to turn learning into real-world action.”
Former Participant
Brisbane State High School
“Participating in the Future Anything workshop was a transformative experience, reshaping my teaching philosophy. I highly recommend it for those seeking to inspire the next generation with skills beyond traditional academics.”
Teacher
Morialta Secondary College, SA
"The journey that the FA program took me on completely changed the trajectory of my life. It helped me overcome some of my social anxiety and I found myself being able to network and pitch to a room of 200 people. It fostered my passion for entrepreneurship, specifically social entrepreneurship, which led to my work today at 180 Degrees Consulting QUT. It allowed me to get a real taste of entrepreneurship, and where that could take me in life."
Jordan O’dell-Fontana
Brisbane State High School
"The Future Anything Challenge is such a valuable program to help students develop essential skills. Everybody steps out of their comfort zones in teaching and learning which is what leads to amazing ideas and productive risk taking. My students thoroughly enjoyed the program.”
Teacher
"The Future Anything Challenge challenges the idea that students only have two pathways after school: university or a trade. It opens up a third option, showing young people that they can explore opportunities beyond traditional routes and even turn their passion into their profession.”
Teacher
Brisbane South State Secondary College
“Thirty years into my teaching career, this is the most useful and relevant professional development I’ve ever attended.”
Experienced Teacher (30+ years)
“I am a beginning teacher and I found that the Future Anything Challenge really encapsulated a teaching style that I want to apply to other classes as well. The project-based-learning style that culminates in the showcase/pitch day held a lot of meaning for the students, and had clear application of skills that students need beyond the classroom.”
Teacher
Kenmore State High School, QLD
"The opportunities to engage in real world learning, driven by the students’ areas of interest, within a framework that supports the curriculum, has been invaluable. Our kids have engaged to such a high level with their social impact projects that we are expanding the opportunities this year, and I can’t wait to see the outcome.”
Principal
Marsden State High School, QLD
"Future Anything gave me the structure, mentorship, and confidence to turn those ideas into a real enterprise. Their workshops pushed me to refine my product, sharpen my pitch, and think strategically about growth. Future Anything also ignited a deeper purpose in me: empowering other young entrepreneurs. In 2023 I launched Youngpreneur Markets By Chloe to give young makers and innovators a platform to showcase their products, develop skills, and build confidence... proof that the ripple effect of Future Anything’s work is real and growing."

The team's energy, expertise and ability to engage students in real- world problem solving is second to none.​ The day was dynamic, inspiring, and left students empowered to think big and act with purpose. We’re already looking forward to partnering with the Future​ Anything team again in 2026!”

"I have taught The Future Anything Challenge program for five years and I absolutely love it. I’ve been to three National Grand Finals and Future Anything always puts on an excellent event. But our most important congratulations go to all the students who make this program what it is.”
Educator of the Year 2023, ​Vicki Cull
Redbank Plains State High School
"The program has influenced not just my schoolwork but my whole life. In fact it has changed my whole outlook on school. The opportunities I received were incredible. I got to and still do collaborate with the most amazing people, but what mattered most was the confidence and skills I gained. Future Anything isn’t something you just “win once” — it keeps supporting you well into the future."
