TEENAGERS from schools across South Yorkshire enj-oyed flying high at a Sheffield University summer school designed to introduce them to campus life.
Youngsters enjoyed a ride in a flight simulator in the engineering department as part of a week of events which are held every year.
The Aimhigher summer school also included lectures, careers advice, sport, social activities, and even gave the po
tential undergraduates the chance to stay the week in the university's halls of residence.
This year's packed programme saw 14 different departments from the university offer more than 20 different activities, including getting to grips with polymer slime in the Department of Chemistry, learning clinical skills in the School of Med-icine and Biomedical Science and talking ethics in the Department of Archaeology.
The students also spent time at businesses, including Thompsons Solicitors, CODA Architects and the Crown Prosecution Service.
