Balloon winner announced!


The winner of the Heartlands Biodegradable Balloon Race has been announced! Local student Roxanne Penfold from Pool Business and Enterprise College, is now the proud owner of a new bike thanks to her balloon making the 712 mile trip to the small town of Modingen in Germany.

In total 33 balloons were reported found from Jersey, France and the winner in Germany.

The balloon release that took place on July 23rd was to mark the launch of construction on site and echoed the movement of Cornish people around the world in the 18th and 19th century.

Roxanne has been involved with Heartlands through the geography department. Roxanne and her year group have been researching the renewable energy sources that we will have on site to power Heartlands.

Roxanne is pictured above receiving her prize, along with friend Shauna, and Pool Business and Enterprise teachers Mrs Boase and Mr Brooks.
