I’m an Engineer, I Can Help Here!

Primary 5-7 have been learning about flooding to help them become more resilient if such an event should happen. Primary 7 were finding out about flood risks in their local area. They then went on to learn how pulley systems could be used to move large items. They completed some experiments to find out about the load and effort. They then learned how to make water pumps, to pump out water. They also completed some experiments to find out about valves and suction. Finally they had to build a bridge to allow amenities to get into a trapped village. They had to think very carefully of it’s structure.
