What a fantastic way to learn the traditional craft of blacksmithing! The Product Design dept took a group of pupils to the Quinnell School of Blacksmithing at Rowhurst Forge for a day of practical metalworking. They were shown how to use a coke forge to heat steel to a bright orange glow before shaping it on an anvil and had demonstrations covering essential techniques such as drawing out, tapering, bending, and twisting, as well as the importance of accuracy and controlled hammer blows. After this each pupil had the opportunity to create a bespoke piece. Working individually under expert guidance, they experienced the physical demands of forging while developing patience, resilience, and precision. . #blacksmith #blacksmithing #cokeforge

Lower Sixth Computer Science students visited The National Museum of Computing at Bletchley Park, the historic home of British codebreaking, which houses the world’s largest collection of working historic computers, including operational replicas of the Bombe and Colossus. The students were given a behind-the-scenes guided tour that brought the history of computing vividly to life. They operated a working Enigma machine, discovered how the Lorenz (Tunny) cipher was broken using Colossus, and saw first-hand the scale and ingenuity of early electronic computing. The trip ended with students trying their luck on a 1990s pinball machine - a reminder of just how far (and how quickly) computing technology has evolved! . #TNMOC #bletchleypark #NationalMuseumOfComputing
