The hard work and enthusiasm of Ryde Academy’s Rock Challenge students has paid off as they are through to the national final!
They beat nine other schools at the Southern Finals last weekend and are the only Island school to have made it through. They are also in the top nine of schools in the whole of the UK.
Fundraising efforts
The finals are taking place in Milton Keynes on 6 July. Both the Academies Enterprise Trust and the Academy are keen to do everything they can to support the team and are contributing to the cost.
In addition staff and students will be holding a mufti day on Wednesday 1 July in order to help raise the necessary funds.
Sponsorship appeal
Ryde Academy are appealing to any local organisations and businesses for sponsorship of the team and would be grateful for any help that could be given.
