Portobello High School in Edinburgh is delighted to offer your students in S3 and S4 the opportunity to take part in our International Space Challenge. This is a cross-curricular event showing how the combination of languages and STEM can open up opportunities in future careers.
The space tourism race is on, and your challenge will be to design a space hotel for a European consortium. The overall design will have to be smart and practical, and the hotel needs to be full of innovative ideas that have real potential to work in space. Furthermore, teams will have to work in a foreign language with continental materials suppliers and make a presentation to the European investors in French, German or Spanish.
This is an opportunity for your students to put their STEM and language knowledge into context in a fun environment, improving their employability skills along the way.
Full details about the challenge can be found in the attached document. Visit the website to register interest or book a slot for your team. Please note there is a charge to participate.
