Primary 7 have been challenging ourselves with STEM projects. Last week the challenge was to create a boat to carry Penny coins. The boat to hold the most without sinking wins. The materials provided were 4 straws, 1 piece of card, clingfilm, tinfoil, selloptape and scissors. The pupils had ten minutes to design their boat then a following ten minutes to test it with a small bowl of water before making their final adjustments before the big class test. The winning group successfully held 11 Pennies and stayed afloat! Well done to all the teams for their hard work!
