On Wednesday the 24th of April we hosted our first STEM Family Challenge event alongside the Engineering Development Trust. Students from years 7-9, along with their families spent the evening building trebuchets which could launch a projectile over a wall and as far as possible. Families also learnt about careers in STEM.
The trebuchet activity was extremely competitive and there were some fantastic designs on show. The staff team of Mr Evans, Ms Broadbent and Mr Bratton made a successful trebuchet but congratulations go to Katrina in year 7 and her parents for the longest distance by a considerable margin.
