Our six students competed against teams from other schools, using their science and engineering knowledge to design and build a model hotel. They had to take all the planning and build costs into consideration including design, structure and cost.

They then had to create a marketing presentation in German to ‘sell’ their hotel to potential investors. Both of their presentations were given to a panel of  judges comprising RAF engineers and linguists. Afterwards the students also had a bonus Russian language taster session.

Teacher Mr McRae-Smith said ‘The students worked brilliantly as a team, against some really strong competition. Their design was noted for being well planned and researched and one student received a special individual prize for her contribution towards the language presentation as well. The team should all be very proud they were a credit to the school.’
