This week, our Year 6 children took an inspiring trip to an engineering and STEM event at the Beacon of Light.
The Bring it On! event gave Year 6 the opportunity to see and experience engineering careers in action and to talk to engineers about future career possibilities. Activities ranged from driving and operating a real life digger to operating virtual reality systems and learning how to film with the BBC.
As well as being a super fun day out, the event also opened our eyes to the many opportunities available to us!
Katie said: "I loved driving and operating the digger as it was something we would never get to do normally."
Lara said: "I had a great time working with the BBC learning how to create film effects using only an iPod."
