The sunny campus at Lancaster University provided the perfect backdrop as 170 students from local schools arrived, ready to compete in a range of activities in the challenges spanning the areas of science, technology, engineering and mathematics.
The promising young scientists were put to the test setting up a chemical reaction, building hologram-like projection stages using iPads, designing and firing bottle-rockets and making precision measurements.
All of the teams put in an amazing effort, but the top 3 from each challenge and the overall winners were as follows...
Science Top 3: 1st Lancaster Royal Grammar School, 2nd Lancaster Girls' Grammar School, 3rd Carnforth High School
Technology Top 3: 1st Morecambe Community High School, 2nd Carnforth High School, 3rd Ulverston Victoria High School
