Rotary North Group School Technology Tournament 2017

This year's Tournament was attended by some 80 students

The objective, this year,was to launch a "satellite" to exceed a height of 3m, marked by a cross-piece on the vertical rod, and return as close as possible to the launch site. The target on the ground is to mark the return. On their final launch, the winning Foundation Group team, from Hurworth School, scored a bull's eye, with the returning "satellite" hitting the lip of the cup.

Several Wensleydale Rotarians were involved in organising this year's Rotary Technology Tournament at Catterick Garrison, along with colleagues from other Rotary Clubs in North Yorkshire
