Engineers Week
(2nd-8th March 2019)

Engineers Week was a very enjoyable week in our school. The

​ children completed a number of fun investigations and projects.


​
Children from 3rd and 4th class constructed cars which were

powered by balloons. We then had car races with the junior and

senior infants and we explored the efficiency of our cars! 




In 5th and 6th class the children designed and constructed a

house for the 4th little pig. In teams the children had to decide

which materials were best suited to build a strong house that

could stay standing in the ‘wind of the wolf’ and budget

appropriately to purchase those materials.

Once constructed we then tested their houses against the wind

(hairdryer) and measured the distance travelled by each house

when battling with the wind.
