Today Year 8 worked with staff from IBM to explore how technology can be sustainable. In teams of four, the students developed an idea that could reduce carbon, energy, water and waste in school. Some designed a sustainable way to travel to and from school, others created solutions to improve the efficiency of the school food and catering service, for example.
They took part In a ‘Dragon’s Den’ style workshop to help them come up with those great ideas.
The two teams judged to have the best idea will be invited to IBM Hursley for an exciting two-day Grand Finale in October, where they will experience technology hands-on for themselves, get a behind-the-scenes tour of the IBM Hursley Laboratory and compete for the “Best Project” award.
