Every year, we participate in the Primary Engineer Leaders Award for STEM. This competition asks the question “if you were an engineer in Scotland, what would you invent and why?”. This year, thousands of children across Scotland took part and we are delighted that Finlay Gordon in Primary 2 has been judged an overall winner. Finlay will now be invited to attend a prize giving ceremony at the Barony Hall in Glasgow on 2nd June where he will be presented with his trophy alongside the other 11 winners for Scotland. Congratulations Finlay – we are all so proud of you!

P6 Starting our STEM challenge
Today in class we were very lucky to have a STEM coordinator (Mr Hendry) visit our class to help with the initial organisation of our STEM Challenge – to design a motorised vehicle. We got to spend time working alongside Mr Hendry to design parts for our own models which will then be created on our very own 3D printer!
