Squashed Tomato Challenge

Squashed Tomato Challenge at Burnside Business & Enterprise College

10 July

The STEM Outreach team had a great day yesterday at Burnside Business & Enterprise College with their Year 8 students.

STEM Ambassadors from Balfour Beatty, Newcastle University, Siemans, Atkins Global, the RAF and Kier Strategic Highways helped students work in groups to design and make a pulley system that could successfully transport tomatoes, with the best ones going on to compete to see how well their designs worked.

Thanks to everyone involved!
