Students enjoy Special BRM Treat

Students from Mays house at local school Bourne Academy enjoyed a special visit on Wednesday, 12th December, to thank them for their hard work packing programme bags in the run up to BRM Day in October.

In the week before the event, the students worked hard to put 15,000 programmes into bags, got them put into boxes, and then helped to load them into a bus provided by committee member Anthony Delaine-Smith to be sold on the day, and the organising committee decided that something had to be done to thank them for all their hard work.

Local racing car restorers Hall & Hall brought a BRM racing car down to the school, so that some Mays house students could be photographed in and around the car.

Hall & Hall Mechanics then started the car, so that the students could see and hear the car in action.

The house takes its name from Raymond Mays, founder of the Bourne-based racing team, and so a photo of house members in front of a BRM is something the house will be able to treasure.
