Creative conductors STEM session on Tuesday 8th May

We have filled 44 out of 60 places for a STEM day on the 8th May. Next Tuesday 60 students will be off timetable for a two hour session with a external STEM experts visiting the school to run the session. This is a hands-on workshop combining practical skill and computer control. If there are any more year 7 students who want to come then you must act fast to secure one of the remaining 16 places. Tickets can be collected from tutors or from Mr Walters and need to be posted in the box in DT5.

These opportunities are looking good to be fantastic opportunities for students with STEM skills or interests to develop them further.
