Our future budding engineers Rebecca and Rachael travelled to\u00a0 Dumfries yesterday to participate in the Glasgow Science Festival Creating Engineers Regional Final! The girls had won the local Rhins competition last term and we now competing on a bigger stage!<\/strong><\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

As expected, they were exemplary representatives of our wee school and they worked hard to complete the tough challenge of planning, designing and building a K’Nex digger complete with\u00a0 a cab, steering wheel, arms and a bucket. We may be a little biased but we thought their finished product was FABULOUS!<\/strong><\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

Although the girls did not win the regional competition, they are winners in our eyes and we are very proud of them. Well done you two \ud83d\ude42<\/strong><\/span><\/em><\/p>\n
