Worcester Prep’s Freshman Class Participates In Annual “Maker Day”

Led by Science and Technology teacher Colleen McGuire, the freshman class participated in Worcester Prep’s annual “Maker Day” activity last month. Maker Day is a dedicated day to celebrate inventing, problem solving, working collaboratively and constructing solutions.  Drawing on a research project they were working on in History and English classes, the students were challenged to generate a display of automata, which would depict a medieval scene inspired by their research. Taking top honors was the team, pictured, of Camden Rayne, Brooke Phillips, Aria Islam, Kate Abbott and Sydney Lamson-Reich. The winning design incorporated moving horses, knights and medieval ladies in the design. Submitted Photos
