Students were put into mixed school groups and had to compete in challenges including robot building, constructing electric vehicles and producing an e-fit image. Two of our groups did very well and each won a challenge; an outstanding achievement as our students were much younger than many students attending from other schools.​ Our students involved were great ambassadors of the school and should be proud of their performance. ![](https://riverside-secondary.com/images/396a.jpg)![](https://riverside-secondary.com/images/396b.jpg)![](https://riverside-secondary.com/images/396c.jpg)![](https://riverside-secondary.com/images/396d.jpg)![](https://riverside-secondary.com/images/396e.jpg) [ U13 Handball National Champions 2014](https://riverside-secondary.com/news/2014-06-20-u13-handball-national-champions-2014) [KEEPING YOU UPDATED, SCHOOL TRIPS IN JULY ](https://riverside-secondary.com/news/2014-07-08-keeping-you-updated-school-trips-in-july) ![Riverside Secondary School](https://files.schudio.com/riverside-secondary-school/images/logo/Logo_Footer.png) ### Riverside Secondary School Renwick Road Barking IG11 0FU 0203 946 5888 ### Social Media - [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/riverside_campus/) [![Partnership Learning](https://files.schudio.com/riverside-secondary-school/images/logo/AAAPartnership-Learning_white.png)](https://partnershiplearning.com) © Copyright 2026 Riverside Secondary School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://riverside-secondary.com/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
