TOM Update | 2027


Congratulations to all our NT Teams who participated in our NT Final

Registrations for our 2027 TOM NT Tounament are now open. Following on from the highly successful TIF 2026, hosted by our own NT Branch, we look forwrd to having more schools involved this year and a successful trip to TIF in Perth 2027 to help celebrate TOM's 40th Anniversary.

Thank you to all of those people who volunteered and helped in some way to make TIF 2026 the incredible success it was. Without the help of over 100 volunteers, the event would not have run as smoothly as it did. Thank you also to those people who were judges for the event. We look forward to you judging again next year at our NT Final.

The winning teams all represented the Northern Territory very well and their school, teachers and parents should be very proud of their students.

Congratulations to the Larrakeyah Primary School Social Sciences Team, 'We SEAM Smart' on gaining Honurs at this year's International Final.

Well done everyone.
