Year 6 Formula 1

On 21 May, the Hall was filled with the sounds of gas-powered Miniature Formula 1 Cars. The event was the culmination of a 6 week study for Year 6 students, where they formed Formula 1 teams and designed colour schemes, logos and dreamed up race-like mission statements and mottos.

The second stage was to construct a miniature Formula 1 car with lifelike structure and tyres, and designing a body worthy of a F1 championship team.

On the day, teams raced against each other in twos, with the start being a case of who had the best reaction time, and the finish being a case of who had the most aerodynamic design.

Results are as follows:

1st High Speed Express 1.383 sec

2nd Minion Moustaches 1.396 Sec
