Our Year 9 STEM Ducati Team had the fantastic opportunity to visit Middlesbrough College last night after a long day at school. The staff were incredibly supportive and provided valuable insights into the different materials used in constructing a superbike. They explored Ducati’s signature trellis frame, discussed the properties of ferrous and non‑ferrous metals, and introduced students to materials such as anodised titanium. They also encouraged the team to consider how these materials could be adapted to enhance their competition bike design.
Students examined the importance of centre of gravity and its impact on bike performance. They were also introduced to materials including Kevlar, lead, titanium, carbon fibre and stainless steel, alongside the manufacturing processes involved. The boys made extensive notes to bring back to SCC HQ as they refine their final designs.
In addition, last week the team made contact with Adam Burnicle bespoke designer for Bentley cars, and explored aspects of design collaboration, considering the shared innovation seen between Bentley and Ducati.

Team Food were absolutely delighted with the exceptional standard of work completed today.
Thanks to the Fish Heroes Scheme, we were fortunate to receive free Alaskan salmon, which our students used to create their own sushi.
Our Year 9 students demonstrated fantastic skill and creativity by preparing their own Japanese mayonnaise and crafting sushi rolls filled with salmon, cucumber, peppers, spring onions, and carrots.
The results were impressive, and it was wonderful to see such enthusiasm and pride in their work.

Team Food hosted an event this afternoon for students from Year 5 at Bluebell Meadow. The students were exemplary and conducted themselves superbly throughout the afternoon.
All of the students made their own homemade dough, which they then rolled out into pizza bases. Our prefects, Heidi, Will, and Ruby, were fantastic with the students and demonstrated great patience, encouragement, and enthusiasm. They would make excellent teachers in the future.
Well done to everyone involved, and a special thank you to Mrs Howard for driving the minibus and helping to make the event such a success.
