Brain Games - North Tyneside
For the first of our Brain
Games events outside of Bristol 32 students from ‘the Gifted and
Talented strand of North Tyneside Excellence in Cities Partnership’
gathered from 13 differnet local schools to face the Brain Games
Challenge.
| Held from 1-5 July 2002 in North
Tyneside, in Longbenton City Learning Centre, a superb computing
facility the project included visits to the local science centre
‘Centre for Life’ and was supported by local games company
‘Reflections Interactive’ and local mentors. The North Tyneside
‘brain gamers’ soon proved they had the brain power and creativity
to produce games to rival our Bristol teams. |
|
The sessions were run by the At-Bristol project co-ordinator with
support from the local partner Claire Johnson (Gifted and Talented
Strand Co-ordinator for North Tyneside EiC Partnership).

day to judge the work produced and the presentations and select
winners. Judges were Claire Johnson, Gifted and Talented Strand
Coordinator for North Tyneside EiC Partnership, Martin Oliver,
Reflections Interactive, Kevin Willis, Head of School Services for
North Tyneside and Jean Griffiths, Senior Inspector for Secondary
Education, North Tyneside. |
Over 40 parents organised to watch the presentations
and view the material produced.
