Last month Macey and I won the Machar’s local K’nex competition in Newton Stewart so we got to go to the Bridge in Dumfries to compete against schools across D&G.\u00a0 Our challenge this time was to make a digger in 1 hour with a mechanical bucket that could move up and down and lift one tire. We thought ours was very creative because it had a steering mechanism, it had 6 wheels and two of them went sideways and it carried the big tire.\u00a0 Surprisingly, we came FIRST!\u00a0 Now, we get to go to Glasgow to compete against even more schools.<\/p>\n
