Roar 2019 is a schools idea competition created by Lions Clubs International and the ideas company 7billionideas. It aims to unlock the creative spirit in every child by giving them the time to imagine and develop ideas that could change the world!

From almost 50 entries, 2 were chosen to go through to the next round: a fully eco- friendly home energy recycling house and a 'dry-brella', which senses rain and automatically drops a protective sheet around the washing to keep it dry. Fingers crossed for a winner, well done to all.
