Last Week I went into GEMS Bolitho School – the winners of the Scrapheap challenge school competition, to award them their certificates and prizes. I thought that all the students and public that took part in National Science and Engineering week this year were fantastic and I was very pleased to receive lots of feedback that let me know that the feeling was mutual. Thanks to all who took the time to give us your feedback. It was really appreciated and will help us make the event ever better next year.
Here is a little taster of what they had to say about Geevor’s scrapheap challenge.

This trip was awesome. I really enjoyed making and using the waterwheel for the scrapheap challenge. I also liked exploring all the amazing tunnels
