We have had a week full of visitors in P5.16 this week to kick off STEM fortnight. Dr Peter Hughes launched the week followed by visits from Glasgow Science Centre, SSPCA, Dr Mathur and Mr Buchan from Scottish Water.

Pupils also participated in a K’nex bridge building challenge where they had to design and create their own bridges. Pupil engineers practised their communication, perseverance and powers of negotiation to construct their final designs.

Finally to end the week pupils combined their knowledge about bearings and coding to guide there Sphero through different challenges. Possibly some future coders amongst them!

Unfortunately the videos were too big to upload!
