The workshop was buzzing with energy as we teamed up to design and build 3D models of transport systems that could make Heathrow Airport more efficient and eco-friendlier. We learned fascinating facts about the many different roles at the airport — from air traffic control to engineering — and just how important each job is in keeping everything running smoothly. With the help of enthusiastic volunteers, we collaborated in teams to create designs that were not only imaginative but also sustainable and practical. It was a fantastic day full of creativity, teamwork, and real-world problem solving — an experience that truly broadened our understanding of how airports work and inspired us to think like future innovators. **Katie, Haa’run, Arya Taiba and Doga** **### Y6 with Heathrow Young Explorers [![](https://files.schudio.com/william-hogarth-school-3/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/y6-one/IMG_4527.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/william-hogarth-school-3/images/gallery/y6-one/IMG_4527.jpg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/william-hogarth-school-3/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/y6-one/IMG_4531.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/william-hogarth-school-3/images/gallery/y6-one/IMG_4531.jpg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/william-hogarth-school-3/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/y6-one/IMG_4538.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/william-hogarth-school-3/images/gallery/y6-one/IMG_4538.jpg)** It was an extremely fun and interactive workshop. It was cool to meet people who worked at London Heathrow and create new technology that would improve the airport. **Blake.** I loved working with the volunteers and coming up with ideas together. It was fun listening to each other’s ideas and their speeches. Thank you so much. **Malak** I found making the 3D vehicles and creating a new invention inspiring and fun. **Tiannah** It was such a fun and amazing experience. UI learnt so much and I would definitely do it again. **Maryam** [ We launch the new playground!](https://www.williamhogarthschool.co.uk/news/2025-03-28-we-launch-the-new-playground) [LKS2 trip to London Zoo ](https://www.williamhogarthschool.co.uk/news/2025-04-23-lks2-trip-to-london-zoo) ### Our School - [Welcome](https://www.williamhogarthschool.co.uk/our-school/about-us/welcome) - [Statutory and Pre-Inspection ](https://www.williamhogarthschool.co.uk/our-school/statutory-information) - [Board of Governors](https://www.williamhogarthschool.co.uk/community/governors) - [Inclusion](https://www.williamhogarthschool.co.uk/send) - [Latest News](https://www.williamhogarthschool.co.uk/news) - [Learning](https://www.williamhogarthschool.co.uk/) - [The School Curriculum](https://www.williamhogarthschool.co.uk/learning-achieving/curriculum-rationale) - [Assessment](https://www.williamhogarthschool.co.uk/learning-achieving) - [Parents](https://www.williamhogarthschool.co.uk/) - [Policies](https://www.williamhogarthschool.co.uk/our-school/policies) - [Pupil Leadership](https://www.williamhogarthschool.co.uk/children/pupil-voice) - [Safeguarding](https://www.williamhogarthschool.co.uk/safeguarding) - [The School](https://www.williamhogarthschool.co.uk/) ![The William Hogarth School](https://files.schudio.com/william-hogarth-school-3/images/logo/HogarthLogo_White_(1).png) ### The William Hogarth School Duke Road Chiswick W4 2JR 020 8994 4782 020 8742 7736 ### Useful Links - [LGFLmail](https://mail.lgflmail.org/owa/auth/logon.aspx?replaceCurrent=1&url=https%3a%2f%2fmail.lgflmail.org%2fowa%2f) - [Parent Pay](https://www.parentpay.com/) - [Parent View](https://parentview.ofsted.gov.uk/) - [Opening Hours](https://www.williamhogarthschool.co.uk/opening-hours) ### Social Media - [X](https://twitter.com/search?q=%40hogarth_the&src=typd) - [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/the_william_hogarth_school/) © Copyright 2017–2026 The William Hogarth School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://www.williamhogarthschool.co.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
