Year 5 Bridge Building

4th Apr 2019

Year 5 were set the challenge today to design and create using newspaper and masking tape. The children worked extremely hard in their groups to devise a bridge using information they had gathered from previous lessons.

At the end of the lesson Mr Cheevers tested the bridges by adding a range of weights to see which one could hold the most weight. This caused a lot of laughter and shock at some of the results.

Well done to all the Year 5 children.
