Operation Montserrat

This week Holy Trinity School conducted an e-Mission session collaboratively with National Space Centre, Leicester. Operation Montserrat is an electronic mission that challenges students to apply their science and math skills to an authentic crisis situation.
During the full day session, five teams are organised into groups, which are given various titles eg, Hurricane Team, Communication Team etc. Each group has to analyze data in order to avert possible disaster and save the lives of the people living in Montserrat. The pupils worked very hard and had a productful day. Also another outreach session to Golden Hillock in Textiles proved awarding. The pupils worked very hard on each of their projects producing some excellent pieces of work.
