N2 - This research report describes microclimate analyses for 9 public schools in Western Sydney and also around the construction site of the Powerhouse at the Parramatta River. The data are used to present novel temperature maps that inform heat management at schools, focussing on interventions for coolth and safe outdoor play. The report is a major contribution to a larger learning program that combined Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) curricular activities with environmental monitoring and urban design. The program was delivered by the Lang Walker Family Academy of the Powerhouse Parramatta, Australia.
