Well done the the Textiles Nens class creating a range of garments for the Dress a Girl charity; building confidence and skills in the process. The shorts and dresses will go to communities less fortunate than ourselves overseas. Well done guys.

Y8 Structures – Built Environment. Great to see the Y8 pupils testing their Built Environment straw bridge structures yesterday which they designed, made and then tested to destruction. There were some fantastic structural failures, which were then evaluated!
Well done Y8.

@jacobstrongreys Unfortunately we were only able to gather enough parts to complete two chassis (we use the scalextric fin and braid contacts, and pinion and contrasted gears). If we could arrange to visit and try them later in the year that would be fantastic though!

The Engineers ran their completed slot cars around the track today! Vacuum formed shells, laser cut chassis, soldered electronics in scalextric cars built from the ground up. Da iawn! #monmouthcomprehensiveschool #monmouthcomprehensive #mcs #dt
