Introduction
I’m Nathan Baws. You might’ve seen me pitch pasta on Shark Tank Australia. These days, I bring that same energy into Perth classrooms.
My Shark Tank activities for high school students are built to get teens thinking for themselves. No lectures, just hands-on tasks, teamwork, and real ideas. I guide them as they solve problems, pitch solutions, and learn how business works.
I’ve seen quiet students find their voice. I’ve seen bold ones sharpen their thinking. It’s real learning, and it sticks.

Why Perth Students Can’t Get Enough
Our Shark Tank activities for high school students tap into the creativity of Perth kids, giving them a platform to shine. Nathan’s energy makes every session feel like a big event. His real-life Shark Tank stories turn lessons into tales students love sharing with friends.
Nathan’s Shark Tank Journey
Nathan faced the sharks on Shark Tank Australia, pitching his Tommy Sugo pasta business with courage. He shares what it’s like to tackle tough questions from investors like Janine Allis, and students are hooked. At a Claremont school, a Year 9 student said, “Nathan makes me want to start my own business!” That’s the spark we aim to ignite.
Made for High School Students
These sessions are built for Years 7 to 12. Each activity fits the students’ level, whether they’re just starting or ready to lead. I remember a quiet Year 7 in Fremantle that came alive after pitching a pet-care business. That moment stuck with me. It’s about helping students feel seen and heard.
Proudly Perth
I’m local, and so are the stories I bring into the room. From a coffee cart in Leederville that became a busy café to the creative buzz in Northbridge, students see that success doesn’t have to start in Sydney or New York. With our Shark Tank activities for high school students, they see what’s possible right here in WA.
Hands-On Fun That Teaches
Students learn best when they’re doing, not just listening. Our Shark Tank activities for high school students get them creating, pitching, and solving problems. Forget boring notes, it’s about jumping in and enjoying the process.
Pitching Like Pros
The highlight is when students pitch their ideas, Shark Tank-style. Nathan teaches them to speak clearly and confidently. At a Joondalup school, a Year 10 student pitched a “sustainable school bag” idea and earned a huge cheer. That’s confidence that lasts.
Solving Real Issues
We challenge students to tackle school or community problems, like reducing waste. They brainstorm together, mixing ideas to create something unique. A group in Innaloo designed a water-saving system, and their excitement was contagious.
Teamwork That Shines
Students work in groups, sharing ideas to build something great. I watched a Year 11 team in Duncraig create a “study planner” app, each student adding their own touch. It’s teamwork that makes every kid feel like a leader.
Money Lessons Made Simple
Talking about money can be dull, but Nathan makes it engaging. Our Shark Tank activities for high school students teach budgeting and profits in a way that’s clear and keeps kids interested.
Budgeting That’s Fun
Students plan a mock business, like a smoothie stand, and figure out costs. A Year 8 group in Morley loved calculating how much fruit and cups they’d need. It’s math, but it feels like planning a fun event.
Pricing with Purpose
Nathan uses examples like a bake sale to show students how to set prices. They learn why value matters and how to stand out. A Year 9 student in Como was amazed at how pricing affects profits, and it clicked right away.
Profits That Click
Profit margins sound heavy, but Nathan turns them into a fun challenge. Students figure out how to make money while keeping costs low. A Year 12 in Nedlands said, “Now I understand why my parents stress about bills!” It’s real-world learning with a smile.
Inspiring Big Dreams
We want Perth students to believe they can chase any dream, whether it’s a startup or a creative project. Our Shark Tank activities for high school students give them the tools to start today.
Stories That Inspire
Nathan’s Shark Tank experiences, like handling tough investor questions, light a fire in students. A Year 11 in Bayswater said, “I thought businesses were for adults, but Nathan showed me I can start now.” That’s the impact we’re after.
Building Confidence
These workshops help students speak up and trust their ideas. They leave ready to tackle challenges in school or life. I’ve seen shy students become bold presenters, like a Year 8 in Rockingham who now loves sharing ideas.
Local Heroes to Admire
We share stories of Perth successes, like a Subiaco student who launched an app from their bedroom. It shows kids that big ideas can start right here in Perth, encouraging them to dream big.
Fun That Feels Like a Party
School should be exciting, and our Shark Tank activities for high school students deliver. Nathan’s humour and energy keep students engaged, turning lessons into memories they’ll cherish.
Laughs That Teach
Nathan’s funny examples, like a “robot pet feeder” business, get students chuckling while they learn. A Year 7 class in South Perth laughed through a brainstorming lesson, and they got it without trying.
Activities That Spark Joy
From acting as “sharks” to designing product posters, every task is hands-on. Students in Mandurah created jingles for their mock businesses, and the room was alive with creativity. It’s learning that feels like play.
Moments That Last
Teachers tell us students talk about our workshops for months. A Duncraig teacher said her kids still mention their Shark Tank pitches during class discussions. That’s the lasting impact we strive for.
