hello there :)

These are the photos that Janika and I have taken but some of the photos were shot by the official photographer from the F1 in Schools competition.

Our team managed to win the Best Pit Display with the help of Unusual Entertainments, and overall 3rd with everyone's help, especially our teachers, parents, mentors, friends, sponsors and partners. We are very proud that we have the chance to go World Finals as we have promised some of you that we want and will go Worlds. Everyone in the team have worked tremendously hard for this F1 in Schools Competition and we have learnt a lot from this invaluable experience.

To end it off, thank you so much for helping us on this endeavour and we are very proud to have all of you supporting us and winning this competition with us.

With this,
Team FTL out.

Before we compete in the F1 nationals, we would like to thank one of our partners for lending us a helping hand and guiding us through this F1 journey.

GBMC which stands for Global Business Management Consultants, is a globally recognised company. Top global companies engage GBMC when they need to develop their people, systems and culture to deliver high performance results in line with their strategic objectives.

GBMC consultants are adept at analysing the client’s needs, developing targeted, high impact organisational interventions, and deploying solutions to close the strategy ex*****on gap, producing measurable bottom line results. GBMC consultants bring extensive “real-life” Project Management experience which sets GBMC apart from our competition.

We are grateful and thankful to be given the opportunity to have GBMC as one of our F1 partners which carried out a meaningful workshop for us to strengthen and teach us on team building and project management. This helped to build our team’s bonding and teamwork skills and we have learnt a lot from this experience.

Once again, we want to thank GBMC for the opportunity to work with them! You can visit their website for more information at http://bmc-global.com/
