CHILDREN from the Alexandra School joined rector, Sir Richard
Sykes, for a trip in Boanerges when they were taken for a tour last
month during Science and Technology Week.
Nick White, special school teacher, said: "Our day at Imperial
provided the children with plenty of memorable experiences which
can be talked about and referred to for a long time to come.
"Direct experience can bring to life what many of our pupils
would otherwise find distant and abstract, and can often be worth
several weeks of classroom work. For example, the ride in the
vintage car, Bo' can show how things change over time through
development. All this would have not been possible without the help
of a group of Imperial Volunteers, who coordinated the trip."
