Year 7 students at Liskeard School & Community College were treated to a whole day off timetable this past week, spending the day looking into the world of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths).

During the day, students worked together in small groups of 4 or 5 to tackle a series of activities around the theme of ‘energy’. The first challenge was to design, make and test a wind turbine against the clock. This was followed by a challenge to design and make a drag car to see how far it could travel on a single burst of energy.
