Cavan Secondary Schools for F1 Challenge

F1 in Schools have put out a final call for Cavan secondary schools to enter a challenge that could see them take part in World Finals in Melbourne next year.

F1 in Schools is the only global multi-disciplinary challenge in which teams of students deploy CAD/CAM software to collaborate, design, analyse, manufacture, test, and then race miniature compressed air powered cars made from the F1 model block.

Aaron Hannon, Co-Founder of F1 in Schools, has called on local schools to enter this year’s programme: “F1 in Schools is a fantastic opportunity for second-level students to learn how to be a leader, an engineer or a businessperson in a fast-paced, exciting and competitive way.

“At F1 in Schools Ireland, we’re delighted to work with new schools and new teachers to help bring these opportunities to even more students. As such, we encourage all schools to contact us or visit f1inschools.ie to learn more about entering the 2020/21 F1 in Schools season,” Mr Hannon said.

The deadline to enter is Friday, 20th November at 11pm. The F1 in Schools World Finals will take place in Melbourne in March 2021.
