Greenpower Education Trust is a UK based charity with an outstanding track record in kick starting careers in engineering. We help unlock potential and spark enthusiasm for Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths (STEM) through the excitement of motorsport. We have 2 teams building cars to enter into the 2021 race event (Boys and Girls Team). Each week the children will record their progress in the build along with any thoughts and pictures they would like to share. ![](https://harrowgateacademy.org/images/STEM/Girls.jpg) ![](https://harrowgateacademy.org/images/STEM/Boys.jpg) We would like to thank our sponsor, Cleveland Scientific Institution, for supporting in developing our engineering skills.
