Merseyside Science and Technology Challenge Day
This week 12 boys from Year 8 were selected to represent MTBS in the Merseyside Science and Technology Challenge Day at Liverpool John Moores University.
They were required to work on four practical applied science and technology related challenges, and faced strong competition from other regional schools.
During the day, our students were able to experience working in a university setting and proved themselves highly adept at fostering teamwork when required to work with students from other schools.
Our students took part in a robotics coding task, where they had to program a robot to navigate an obstacle course. They also attempted an E-fit task, using advanced software to recreate a suspects’ image after a simulated crime. They were required to engage with a highly technical medical diagnosis task, and later charged with designing and constructing their own vehicles to take part in a race.
We are proud to announce that an MTBS team came first in the robotics coding challenge!
