My Project

I am excited to share the wonderful news about the after-school Remote-Controlled Car Club that I have recently launched at our school. The response has been overwhelming, with students eagerly joining to explore the exciting world of RC cars.

The club operates on a simple premise – students can either bring their own RC cars or use one provided by the school.

However, the surge in popularity has posed an unexpected challenge: our limited inventory of RC cars is struggling to meet the growing demand. Recognizing the importance of inclusion and equal opportunity, I have personally contributed $1500 to support the club and ensure that students without the means to purchase their own cars can actively participate.

Objective:

Our primary goal is to expand our club by acquiring additional remote-controlled cars. This initiative aims to ensure that every student, regardless of whether they own a remote-controlled car, can actively participate and enjoy the club's activities.

Utilization of Funds:

The funds raised will be used to purchase more remote-controlled cars and related equipment. By doing so, we intend to create an inclusive environment where all students can have access to these exciting activities. This will not only foster a sense of camaraderie among students but also promote teamwork, creativity, and problem-solving skills.

Planned Activities:

As part of our upcoming activities, we are planning a school-sponsored field trip. This will serve as an opportunity for the club members to come and race their cars on a full size RC track. The field trip is scheduled after school hours, ensuring that all participants can attend without any disruption to their academic commitments.
