On Tuesday 25th June, eleven Mulberry STEM Academy students – five from Year 13 and six currently at university – enjoyed the opportunity of a special visit to the Mercedes-Benz Grand Prix Ltd factory.

A special reward from the Mercedes F1 Team, the trip recognised students who particularly demonstrated one of our PRIDE values: Passion, Respect, Innovation, Determination and Excellence.

During the inspiring visit and exclusive tour of the factory, families learned about the fascinating history of F1 and the Mercedes team, and enjoyed networking with team members.

Everyone felt it was a ‘once-in-a-lifetime’ experience and we’re hugely grateful to the entire team at Mercedes-Benz Grand Prix Ltd for including our parents and carers in this wonderful partnership.

“Coming back to the Mercedes F1 headquarters and seeing everyone again was an amazing experience. Both my parents loved the facilities and thought it was a brilliant day and they enjoyed the tour.”
