GRAHAM has held a STEM activity day at Victoria Park Primary School in Belfast.

The company first invited the students to name the cranes at its Loft Lines BTR development in Belfast. They enjoyed this activity so much that GRAHAM decided to visit the school and organise a STEM activity day. The primary goal was for the P7 students to construct a large tetrahedron using only bamboo canes, elastic bands and teamwork.

The activity not only introduced the pupils to fundamental engineering principles but also essential skills that will benefit them in all areas of life, including:

Dan Ryden, Vice Principal at Victoria Park said: "Our P7s definitely demonstrated their ability to work well as a team as they constructed a gigantic tetrahedron (that's a triangle-based pyramid for most of us!) from just bamboo canes and elastic bands. A massive thank you to GRAHAM for visiting the school and bringing lots of GRAHAM goodies for the children."

GRAHAM is dedicated to tackling societal issues in its operational areas, which may involve offering local employment opportunities, enhancing the skills of its supply chain partners and engaging with community groups, charities, and schools.
