PRESTWICK AEROSPACE STEM WEEK<\/u><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Tuesday 29 August marked our S2 trip to Prestwick Aerospace STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths) week.\u00a0 It was a fantastic event where pupils got the chance to participate in various STEM workshops, exhibitions and interactive games.<\/p>\n

They started the day as Astro-school students and learned how the Hubble telescope is used to find new planets.\u00a0 Next, it was off to the concourse to build and race land yachts.\u00a0 Pupils worked in teams, with help from Glasgow Science Centre, to design models using Lego.\u00a0 Well done to the winning team of Ewan Logie, Abby Dunn, Katelyne Tate and Robbie Neill who even managed to beat the teachers hands down!\u00a0 Finally, our S2s donned white lab coats and became forensic scientists for the afternoon.\u00a0 Led by researchers from the University of Strathclyde, they used the latest techniques to find the culprit of a crime.<\/p>\n

Our pupils were able to see how their STEM subjects could be used in careers in the aviation, aerospace and space industries.\u00a0 A great day was had by all!<\/p>\n
