Students worked collaboratively to design and build a robotic car, which they then manoeuvred across a detailed template of Heathrow Airport The activity tested their creativity and problem-solving skills, while highlighting the importance of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) in real-world applications. From brainstorming designs to overcoming technical hurdles, students demonstrated resilience and ingenuity throughout.
