On the 7th November 2017 the Engineering Extravaganza event was once again held at the AMRC in Rotheram.

This event has now been consolidated into a twice yearly event for participating schools across the South Yorkshire & North Derbyshire area

From its origins back in 2014 this has proved to be a very successful event which now embraces valuable inputs from the AMRC Training Centre and TWI based on the Advanced Manufacturing Park complex.

The four PEI's once again delivered their interactive events where students get the opportunity to have an interesting hands-on experience whilst being able to perceive the Engineering profession in a more enlightened way than they may have experienced previously.

For the IET, Andrew Elwood and Layla Graham our two SYLN SLO's provided an excellent and professional delivery of the popular 'Vacuum Tube Train' activity, ably assisted by a team of STEM Ambassadors and supporters.

The opportunity to engage with teachers at the event always adds value to the overall experience.

The event is also being run once again on the 9th November by the NY & WY Local Networks at the STEM Learning Center based on the University of York campus.

It is also being looked at for future development which may include delivery at the annual Big Bang Fairs.
