Success in National Engineering Competition
The Technology & Design Department entered all Year 9 and Year 10 pupils into the UK-wide competition, “If I Were an Engineer, What Would I Do?”
This competition invites pupils from primary and secondary schools across the UK to imagine themselves as engineers and consider what real-world problem they would most like to solve. As part of the process, pupils interview engineering professionals to gain inspiration before designing their own innovative solutions.
We were delighted to work with former pupil Leigh Crozier, who acted as our link engineer and provided invaluable support and inspiration throughout the project.
The standard of entries was exceptional, with over 50 of our pupils shortlisted. We are particularly proud that four pupils received Highly Commended awards: Ewan, Abel, Jacob and Jessica, while Sophie, Amelia, Joshua and Tommy were named competition winners.
The winning entries will now be showcased at an exhibition at Ulster University in Belfast next week.
Congratulations to all of our pupils who took part in this fantastic achievement, and especially to those who were shortlisted, highly commended, and recognised as winners. We wish them every success at the exhibition.
GCSE GEOGRAPHY FIELD TRIP — DAY 1 AT THE SILLEES
A fantastic first day for our GCSE Geographers at the Sillees River. The sun made an appearance but the river was quite full, which meant lots of wet wellies and plenty of laughs along the way.
Pupils showed excellent behaviour throughout, working safely and sensibly as they collected data for next year’s Unit 3 Fieldwork examination. They measured width, depth, velocity and bedload size and shape, seeing their classroom learning come to life.
A brilliant start to our investigation - great teamwork, great attitudes and great fun. Early to bed tonight after all that fresh air!
Enniskillen RBC had a successful trip to the Athlone regatta with eighteen gold medals. This performance is good preparation for the junior rowers whose next event will be the Junior Irish Championships. Athlone is one of the oldest rowing clubs in Ireland, based on the River Shannon and it hosts a busy regatta with clubs participating from all over the island.
The day got off to a good start with early wins for both J14 girls quads crewed by Sophia Latimer, Muireann Cassidy, Holly McCabe, Sophie Madill, cox Hollie Sharpe and Maya Kettyle, Myleene Loenard, Zarka Kupkova, Heidi Bogle and cox Isobel Guida.
Shortly afterwards the boys double of Oliver Collins and Benjamin Johnston completed a tight finish over MCB, and Josh Allen overcame a spirited fightback from St Josheph’s to win the J15 sculls event. The good conditions at the start began to get tougher with stronger winds which made rowing more challenging but the young crews showed their experience of Erne training by then winning the J15 quad event crewed by Catherine Starret, Michaela Ihnat, Sophie Collum, Sophie Madill, cox Freya McNeary with a two length win over St Michaels.
With the windy conditions, J13 sculling was postponed but the J13 quads continued with wins for the Enniskillen crews of Elizabeth Elliott, Amy Madill, Connie Allen, Lilly Gallagher, cox Isabel Guida, and Emily Cadden, Clara Curren, Kacey Johnston, Annabel Elliott, cox Hollie Sharpe.
The boys J15 octo of Josh Allen, Eli Irvine , George Elliott, Oliver Collins, Levi Thompson, Jack Cuthbertson, Ethan Vance, Finlay Bell, cox Freya McNeary completed a one length win over Galway, in a strong field of six. There was great success in the girls J14 double with all three entries winning their events. Crews were Holly McCabe and Heidi Bogle, Sophia Latimer and Sophie Madill, and Maya Kettyle and Mylene Leonard. In the last race of the morning session the J15 Octo crew of Kaitlyn Read, Maeve Ralston-McAuliffe, Beth Bradley, Holly Shaw, Catherine Starret, Michaela Ihnat, Sophie Collum, Chloe McVitty, cox Leah Topping overcame strong challanges from St Michaels and Castleconnel to take the honours.
The afternoon session started with a win for the girls J14 octo of Maya Kettyle, Sophia Latimer, Holly McCabe, Sophie Madill, Heidi Bogle, Muireann Cassidy, Myleene Loenard, Zarka Kupkova, cox Hollie Sharpe, followed by Kaitlyn Read and Maeve Ralston-McAuliffe in the J15 double event after a tussle with St Michaels, closely followed by a great win for the young crew of Flynn Jennings, Charles Armstrong, Harry Patton, Eoghlan O’shea-Green, and cox Hollie Sharpe in the J13 quad event. In the J14 double race, Tommy Chen and Dara Mangan overcame crews from Athlone and St Michaels to record a fine win, and Muireann Cassidy won a split decision ruling to be awarded the win over Sligo.
In the final race of the day, the boys J15 eight of George Elliott, Josh Allen, Oliver Collins, Eli Irvine, Levi Thompson, Benjamin Johnston, Ethan Vance, Finlay Bell and cox Freya McNeary recorded an excellent two length win over old rivals St Joseph’s in a strong field. Their win ensured Enniskillen would be awarded the coveted Steve Doran Trophy for the most successful club at the regatta.
Next weekend the two senior eights will travel to Cork Regatta, and then the club competes in the Junior Irish Championships in Lough Rinn, Henley Regatta and the Senior Irish Championships at the National Rowing Centre, Co Cork to finish off the season.
