St Peters School at the Challenge final
December 11th, 2008 by emma_kateAt the Make Your Mark Challenge national final on Tuesday, I was lucky enough to meet the team from St Peters School. This multi-talented group had it all! Their idea was to set up ENable, an organisation that would help educate able bodied people about disabled sports, like wheelchair basketball and football for the visually impaired. They made a great presentation – the whole team answered questions, and you could tell how important their idea was to all of them and how well they’d thought it through. Their many other talents included making extremely realistic snoring and cheering effects for the radio advert they produced for ENable, and eating a bowl of mint humbugs in a fraction of the time it took any other school.
The judges were obviously impressed by the guys from St Peters’ work, and awarded them third place in their category of the Challenge. Congratulations to the whole team! The lads also turned their talents to filming on the day of the final: among their short film productions was an extremely artistic video featuring a pastry. I was going to post it here, but instead I think I’ll enter it for next year’s Turner prize. In its place, here are St Peters School’s top tips on coming up with a winning idea…
