A BIG thank you to the Rotary Clubs of York and Portakabin for organising the marvellous Schools Technology Tournament last week.

What a great opportunity for students in the local area to participate in teamwork and problem solving.

All the great economies of the world have a sound basis in design innovation, engineering and manufacturing.

It’s events like this that spark that initial interest in children for a career in this field.

The world that we will live in tomorrow will be built by the students of today.
