Design and Technology – STEM Day: 14/12/18

The recent STEM day attended by 50 second year pupils took place on Friday the 14th of December and was organised by K. Gallagher the Principal Teacher of Design and Technology. The theme of the STEM day was a design and engineering task based on the bright ideas, sustainable energy challenge sponsored by Shell Petroleum.

 

Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths (STEM) days provide short introductory sessions for S2 students to enhance their understanding of, and aptitude for, problem solving, creativity, design, and engineering.

 

Pupils were involved in a smart building project with a focus on two areas of engineering. Students worked in teams of five to design and build a system which will help the world produce and consume more energy while emitting much less carbon dioxide.

 

Well done to all of the pupils who participated in this year’s STEM day and to the overall winners of the D&T shield. Congratulations to Amy, Hannah,  Yunus and Ewan who are pictured with Mr Fisher (DHT for S2).
