Which vehicle can travel the furthest and transport safely too? Congratulations Year 1 and Year 5!
Thu 31 Mar 2022Last term, all classes designed their vehicles both electric and non-electric too. This term they evaluated and refined their vehicles to travel further and transport an egg or a rabbit safely too! Well done Year 1! Your vehicle transported Mr Rabbit the furthest and safely too! Very well done Year 5! Your vehicle travelled up a ramp and had extra grip on your tyres as well as even more battery power!
Both the vehicles go forward to the next round when we compete against other schools in our locality!
Thank you Miss Sharples for co-ordinating this whole school project! Thank you Eldon’s Elders for helping us to investigate and donating the Easter eggs for all of our children!
