Launching a space capsule and ensuring it parachutes successfully into a target area might sound a tall order at the best of times. But coming to it cold, understanding what needs to be done, working out how to use the materials provided, then making and testing it all in the space of a few hours was the challenge facing students from seven local schools in 29 teams in the 2024 Harrogate Rotary Technology Tournament at St Aidan’s C of E School.
The winners at Foundation Level were Rossett School, at Intermediate Level Harrogate Grammar School and at Advanced Level St Aidan’s C of E School. The awards were presented by Harrogate RC President Mervyn Darby and Bill O’Rourke, President of Brigantes gave a vote of thanks.
It was a superb event and a wonderful advert for Rotary.
