Pupils from Oldmachar Academy visit Rubberatkins

On Thursday, March 27th Rubberatkins welcomed to its premises a group of 5th and 6th Year Pupils from Oldmachar Academy at the Bridge of Don.

The main purpose for the trip was to gain a greater understanding of the construction and benefits of our wind turbine. Here at Rubberatkins we are extremely proud of our wind turbine and we like showing it off, especially for educational purposes.

Students were treated to a trip around our manufacturing facilities in order to help them understand the scope of work and familiarise them with a wide variety of tools and machines used in the manufacturing, development and testing of our products.

Finally Andy More, Rubberatkin’s General Manager, held a short seminar about employability skills, communication in business and importance of the teamwork to facilitate better understanding of how skills and knowledge developed through education can be applied in the work place.

It was a very enjoyable visit for us. We always welcome enthusiastic and curious students.
