P4-7 Sports Post 1

Here are the first few pictures of our sports today. These pictures are from the morning and the first part of the afternoon. More  photos to follow in other posts. Well done all; there was some super sportsmanship shown  and some lovely encouragement by our P7 sports captains.

Water Filter Engineering Challenge

P6 have been learning about Environmental Engineering this term – how we collect, manage and filter water using gullies and drains. We had a Teams Meet with Elaine from BEAR Scotland who set us the challenge to design and build a water filter to remove pollutants from water.  The children used Engineering design process to design and plan what they were going to do, build and test their prototype and then think about how they could improve their water filter designs.  The children chose a variety of materials to create their water filter systems including stones, sand, cloth, filter paper, cotton balls and sieves. Great team work P6 – well done!
