W5 Cardboard Regatta Competition

Throughout the 2022/23 academic year, Year 10 and 11 students from six participating schools took part in theory and practical workshops to develop their engineering knowledge.


For the final event, students applied the knowledge they gained throughout the programme to construct a cardboard boat which they displayed at the Showcase event in W5 LIFE. 


On Thursday 22nd June 2023, the six teams, alongside their paired industry expert, travelled to W5 LIFE to participate in the programme's Showcase event. 


The teams presented their innovative cardboard boat designs and communicated their engineering expertise to the judges. 


The team from Fort Hill Integrated College performed fantastically, winning two trophies.  One for ‘Best Theme’ and one for winning the ‘Cardboard Regatta Race’.  Many thanks must go to the team of Engineers from Energia that supported the pupils over the year.

This content is easy to understand and natural. While playing reflex games, I used Slop2. I learned that staying calm is more effective than rushing, because fast reactions without control often lead to mistakes.

The cardboard regatta competition sounds really fun and creative for students. I once had tight deadlines and used Assignment Writers UK so I could manage my time and still take part in activities like this. It helped me stay less stressed. Events like this make learning more enjoyable and practical. your post make me smile.

I enjoyed the post about the cardboard regatta and how it encouraged fun teamwork and creative thinking with simple materials like boxes and tape. When I was overwhelmed with deadlines last semester, UK assignment help was something I used to get through tricky essays so I could still join friends for goofy challenges like this. It reminded me that playful projects can boost energy and focus.

Simple clothing often lasts the longest in a wardrobe. I came across this hoodie while looking through Vanson Jackets, and it feels like a solid everyday choice. The Cj X Oakley Day Zero Black Hoodie gives off a relaxed vibe that works in many casual situations.
