Water Rocket Challenge at NPL – Enter your Apprentice cohort

18th January 20196th September 2019 Uncategorised

Over the last 20 years, we have seen 740 teams participate in the NPL Water Rocket Challenge – raising over £20,000 for their chosen charity, the Shooting Star Chase children’s hospice.

For the first time, NPL Water Rockets are running the ‘Apprentice Challenge’. Teams of up to 6 one member must be an apprentice (more can come to spectate/cheer on) arrive at the field from 16:30 to start at 17:00 and have 90 minutes to open a box and follow enclosed instructions to create and prepare for the main challenge. No other equipment or prior preparation is required. Teams will compete in the main challenge against others and there will be an Award for the best achiever in this group.

"Thank you for helping us build our future and for your continued support and dedication to apprenticeship training."

"I get to experience what working life is like whilst getting support from both my Line Manager and the team at CSR to develop. With the qualifications I have gained this will help to increase my employability and allow me to apply for more advanced roles at my current, or other, companies in the future."
