Springwood Fit & Fun school visit

Sacyr UK’s Community Benefits Coordinator (CBCo), Jo O’Keefe and Community Benefits Apprentice (CBA), Sam Rees, were delighted to join forces with Robyn Marshall of Sphere Solutions to deliver an educational experience for pupils at Springwood primary school in Llanedeyrn during their Fit & Fun Summer event.

The engaging session introduced pupils to the world of structural engineering through a fun and accessible STEM activity. Using just sticks and elastic bands, pupils were guided to build tetrahedrons. They quickly grasped the principles of construction before enthusiastically moving on to create larger and more complex models.

Sacyr UK and Sphere solutions have a longstanding collaborative relationship, with Sphere Solutions supporting Sacyr UK in the construction of the new Velindre Cancer Centre (nVCC).

The workshop is part of Sacyr UK’s wider commitment to education and skills development in South Wales, with the company currently leading the construction of the new Velindre Cancer Centre (nVCC). Sphere Solutions is working closely with Sacyr UK as a subcontractor on the landmark healthcare project.
