We are five 16-17 year-old students from Saint Olave's Grammar School, who are competing in the STEM Racing (formerly F1 in Schools) competition as a professional class team. We are a team of leaders, innovators, and designers who love STEM based activities, since we believe they provide valuable, real-life experience through hands-on-learning.

When I first heard of the SR competition, I found it compelling and quickly formed a team. I never knew that it would become such a deep and demanding project at the start, but it is something that I truly enjoy and value. The feeling of winning is something you can't beat, and I want to help my team on its journey.

SR has always sounded like an amazing stem project, and as an engineering enthusiast I knew that it was the right decision to partake. Free time is also very hard to fill, and I knew SR would make that time well spent. I also love the adrenalin rush that comes with winning, and I hope to share that feeling with my teammates.

SR is an awesome, incredibly fun, and difficult project that I use to challenge myself in a way that I feel that examinations cannot. It gives me an opportunity to learn new skills and work to my best, and although my job is not on the car itself, I have loved seeing its development through the competition.

I've always taken a liking towards motorsports (especially F1), and when I heard of SR I knew this was a perfect opportunity for me. The concept of racing a miniature car along a 20m track captured my interest immediately, and being a part of a team and seeing its growth throughout the years feels awesome!

I enjoy various aspects of DT, and view SR as a way to challenge myself in a unique way. Although there are a few aspects of technology and engineering that I have explored in depth, SR was new to me, and through it I have learned many things about it while helping my team along our journey.
