STEAM day

On Tuesday 15th October, 2024, a small group of year 8 students were selected to represent Ruislip High School at a STEAM day, held at Thorpe Park. The sun was shining and students fully enjoyed the STEAM activities on offer, as well as Thorpe Park’s thrilling rides. 

The event was put on by ACS International School and a wide range of partners from organisations such as Morrisions, the British Armed Forces and Surrey University. The students had a gamification postcard and needed to visit stalls and complete activities to gain stamps to give them access to the Thorpe Park rides. 

One of the highlights of the day was our students were booked onto a CATS the Musical make-up and wigs workshop, where they learned to create make-up techniques to become a feline character. The students were so creative and their designs were very realistic. 

Lucas said about the day, "I thoroughly enjoyed the trip to Thorpe Park and it definitely made my week."

Well done to all the students for their excellent attitudes and sense of adventure on a fantastic day out.
