Victory filled the air as the esteemed judges of the Emirates Aviation College announced Dubai scholars as the winners of the Rocket Challenge 2018.
Three magnificent teams from our school took part in the Rocket Challenge and put their best foot forward by working hard for weeks- thinking, building and testing out their rockets. Their hours of effort and preparation successfully paid off when at the competition, Our Year 10’s team put together their ingenious minds and constructed a rocket which not only exhibited the potential to win but contained a very professional design as well, and spare in mind this professional design was created by materials provided on the spot, our school indeed does possess creative minds!

The rocket, upon being constructed, was ready for launch! It covered an outstanding distance of 91.5 meters, surely a massive distance covered. However, another school managed to overtake us with a leading distance of 95 meters. That was a moment of despair and shock to us but our spirits were lifted up to the clouds when the judges chose our school as the winners with due to our professional design. |

Winning, of course remains the best part of a competition but what was even greater was the prizes our victory team walked home with- An I Pad 5th Generation and other goodies such as Hoodies for each member of the winning team!“it was really fun to see all the student’s enthusiasm. It was a great learning experience for all of us and we hope to take part in this amazing competition again,” quoted our Year 10 winning team. A very special word of gratitude to our teachers for guiding us at all our mistakes and giving us an enlighten learning experience. |
