S2 Construction Challenge

13 12 2007

DSCN2654This afternoon 10 S2 pupils made the journey all the way in to Napier University to take part in the Construction Challenge. This is a competition that schools from all over Lothian and the Borders take part in, Ross High were up against stiff competition in George Watson’s and the Royal High School.

How much more will it take?Over the afternoon the pupils performed really well in a number of challenges related to the construction and engineering industry. In a tight fought competition Ross High were narrowly beaten by the Royal High team but their teamwork and ingenuity won them praise from all of the organisers. Despite the narrow defeat the team still walked away the proud owners of some HiVis vests and a DVD of a 3D film! There are more photographs of the team in action on flickr.

On behalf of the CDT department staff and the whole school we’d like to say a huge thank you to the pupils involved, you have done yourselves and your school very proud.
