Register for the race now! The Oundle School Virtual Balloon Race will virtually launch from the School’s SciTec Campus during Climate Week, 7-13 March.
Balloons will be subject to live weather conditions as reported on Yahoo Weather during race week, and entrants will be able to track the progress of their balloons online. We are delighted to have the support of Al Jazeera International weather presenter and meteorologist, Everton Fox, who will be talking to a group of students during Climate Week on a variety of related topics.
The Oundle Society is encouraging everyone in the Oundle Community to participate in the race by purchasing a balloon for just £5 (£3 for pupils) during the coming weeks.
Prizes will be awarded to the balloons that travel the furthest. Read more about the race event and enter a balloon on the race website, here.
All profits will be allocated to the SciTec Campus project (Oundle School Foundation Registered Charity number 1075698).
