At the end of our Moving Mechanisms DT topic, the children were set a challenge to design and make a product that uses a pneumatic system that would be helpful in the home. After coming to give the class a deeper understanding of pneumatics (and hydraulics), our school governor, Craig Wilkinson, was so impressed, he actually made the challenge into a competition! He had a very hard job trying to pick three winners as he was blown away by people’s ideas!
Eventually he was able to pick three:
1st place: Scarlett Munro who won a trophy and £15 of Amazon vouchers
2nd place: Milly Malone who won £15 of Amazon vouchers
3rd place: Eva Abernethy who won £15 of Amazon vouchers
A massive well done to our budding Young Engineers of the future and a big thank you to our judge, Craig Wilkinson.
