Norwell District Secondary School students Zach Martin and Eric Small competed in the Regional Precision Machining Skills competition held in Guelph on March 7.
Martin managed to pull out a first place victory and brought home the gold medal. Both students worked extremely hard to prepare for their competition and now will move on to further competitions.
Also on March 7 Norwell was well-represented by students in the Regional Skills Competition held at the Acqua Salon in Guelph. Norwell’s Abby Hergott took second place, Jessica Martin placed third and Alana Woods fourth. The girls did a full month of training during their lunches, and on evenings and weekends. They competed in three categories including Bombage, creative women’s haircut and elegant evening up style.
On March 10, two students competed at the Regional Small Machines Skills Competition where Alex Franklin brought home the gold. He, along with his teammate Richard Geerlinks, worked extremely hard to prepare and Norwell is very proud of all competitors.
