Revving up excitement at Greenpower

An annual event dedicated to celebrating STEM learning, took place at Predannack Airfield near Mullion, leaving participants and spectators electrified with excitement.

Greenpower, which brought together dozens of schools and hundreds of enthusiastic pupils, was a resounding success, showcasing the talent and innovation of young minds in the field of electric car racing.

“As the main sponsors of the event, we are absolutely thrilled to see the passion and talent displayed at Greenpower,” expressed John Evans, Principal and CE of The Cornwall College Group (TCCG).

The day was filled with friendly rivalry, healthy competition and an electric atmosphere that made it an unforgettable experience for everyone involved.

Teams of talented students from various schools across the country showcased their skills, creativity and perseverance as they pushed their electric cars to the limits.

With a combination of innovative thinking, science, technology, engineering and mathematics, the students demonstrated their techniques, making the Greenpower racing event a unique platform for them to unleash their potential.

The Greenpower racing event not only encouraged students to engage in hands-on STEM activities but also fostered teamwork, problem-solving and critical thinking.

“We are delighted to have had The Cornwall College Group as our main sponsors for this year’s Greenpower racing event,” commented a Greenpower spokesperson. “Their support has been instrumental in making this event such a resounding success.
