Faraday Challenge

(Posted on 04/05/18)

On Wednesday 25th April, some of Ysgol y Grango’s year 8 students were given the opportunity to attend a Faraday Challenge workshop at Flint as part of the school’s More Able and Talented programme. Students were given the task of budgeting, designing and making a prototype to solve a real-life engineering problem which this year was based on a roller coaster or attraction for Thorpe Park. Although students did not win, they worked incredibly hard, their design was commended by organisers of the workshop and all students returned to Grango with certificates for their efforts. Da iawn chi!
