Truro School Geologists victorious second year running

Yesterday afternoon, the Lower Sixth Geology students competed in the regional round of the Geological Society’s School Competition, and won!

They competed against Exeter College, Torquay Girls School, Torquay Boys School, and Helston College which was more than the previous year.

The team consisted of Monty Rix, Oscar Fletcher, Molly Machin, Sophia Bishop, James Crow and Hugo Harrower. They produced a poster on the Emergence of Life which focused on early life and the prospect of life on other planets, they also gave a presentation on the topic and then competed in a quiz. They won all sections convincingly and were a real credit to the school.

The students are delighted to be heading to the National Finals in London in March.
