Sixth Formers in ‘Challenge 12’ Final

Sixth Form head to Canary Wharf for Challenge 12 final

On Friday 8th March Welwyn Hatfield Borough Council ran a ‘Challenge 12’ event for Year 12. In house teams, the students were challenged to create an event that could raise money for a local charity. The challenge involved a variety of employment and life skills including financial planning, marketing, advertising and risk assessment. On Friday 24th May the winners, House Austen, went on to represent Bishop’s at the final at Barclays Headquarters in Canary Wharf competing against five other local schools. They were tasked with pitching an idea for an event finale for the WGC 2020 celebrations. The students had a fantastic day and were praised for their ideas; the judges commented on the excellent work that was evident in their final pitch.
