Class 10 students Deepan Kumar, Ben Maliel and Christopher Seidl from Canberra Boys Grammar School won the scholarship by submitting their own coded iOS application, reported Canberra Times. 
 
According to Kumar, programming helped students develop creative ideas that could solve many challenges the society faces and should be implemented in more schools.
