From workshop to museum display 🛠️✨

Recently, some of our students have been working alongside the team at the Locomotion museum on an exciting restoration project, helping to bring a historic Siphon G Wagon back to life 🚂

Throughout the project, students gained hands-on experience in heritage conservation, learning specialist restoration techniques and using protective paints to preserve both woodwork and metalwork. Their hard work, dedication and attention to detail have played a key role in transforming the carriage for public display 🚂✨

Seeing the finished wagon or the first time was a proud and unforgettable moment for our students, and we were there to capture the journey from start to finish 🌟

🎥Check out the video to hear from the students during the project, and see their final reactions when they unveiled the finished restoration

This incredible opportunity was delivered through our Work Experience programme, part of QE’s wider Enrichment Programme, giving students the chance to develop valuable real-world skills, build confidence and explore future career pathways 🚀

Putting their investigative scientific skills to the test 🔬

Each year, our Chemistry students take part in the Schools’ Analyst Competition challenge set by Northumbria University in partnership with the Royal Society of Chemistry🧪

This year’s challenge saw students investigate a mysterious illness, using forensic, cosmetic and analytical science techniques to uncover whether foul play was involved🔍

With a limited amount of time to complete the investigation, our students demonstrated outstanding scientific knowledge, problem-solving abilities and teamwork throughout🌟

The standard of work produced was exceptional, and we are incredibly proud of the dedication and enthusiasm shown by everyone involved💡

An extended congratulations to our winning team, Hugo, Max and Joe on their fantastic achievement👏

A golden start to the QE Golfing season ⛳️

What a fantastic day for our QE golfers as they headed to their latest competition at Ramside Golf Club in Durham, and what a success it was!🌟

With the sun shining, the team got their golfing journey with QE off to an amazing start, and all students took on the course with confidence, determination and plenty of enthusiasm💯

The day finished with some amazing results:
• Ethan securing 2nd place overall with a total net score of 70
• Jack and Scarlette joint 30th overall, finishing +10 with a total net score of 82

It was a day filled with great golf, friendly competition and memorable experiences, marking a fantastic achievement for all three students and an excellent start to their golfing journey at QE⛳️

A special moment this morning as QE student Sam appeared on BBC Breakfast and was reunited with Nigel, whose life he helped save earlier this year✨

Using the first aid training he had received through Cadets; Sam played a key role in providing assistance to help save Nigel's life. As a member of our Combined Cadet Force here at QE, Sam's actions are a testament to the compassion, courage and community spirit we value at QE💜

Sam was also recently awarded the Young Citizen Award at our College Volunteering Awards, recognising his remarkable bravery and the positive impact he has made within our community

We are immensely proud of Sam. His bravery, quick thinking, and commitment to helping others demonstrate the very best of our college's community⭐
