5th and 6th Class were busy designing and creating marble runs in pairs. Like any engineer, they were given a design criteria: two towers, a bridge, a clear beginning and end and no bigger than the desk. The children brought their design ideas together and came up with their first plan. They brainstormed the design, the materials and how they were going to construct their run using those materials. Although each group came across many different design and construction challenges along the way, everyone was successful in creating a functioning marble run.                                                                                                    On completion of the project, we invited other class groups in to test them out. Lots of fun was had by all.

The 5th and 6th class students also designed and made their own projects at home.
