Head of School Jack recently had the experience of a lifetime when he travelled to Alabama in the US, to take part in The Honeywell Leadership Challenge Academy at the U.S Space and Rocket Center! 

Jack was selected for the programme following a rigorous application and review process based on academic achievement and community involvement. 1 of 5 successful applicants from the UK, he joined 170 students from across the world.

The Honeywell Leadership Challenge Academy is aimed at encouraging students to pursue science, technology, engineering and maths (STEM) careers through real-world, hands-on activities in computer science, engineering, astronautics, and coding. They learnt from some of the greatest aviation, engineering and scientific experts and innovations, developing STEM leadership skills through team-building challenges such as building, coding and testing rockets; simulated astronaut training; shuttle missions; and a low-gravity moonwalk! 

Congratulations Jack on gaining a place on this incredible programme and becoming a space camp graduate!
