P6 Knex Starter Challenge

P6 take part in an annual Knex Challenge against other schools for a bit of fun.  We had some training before we made our Knex item so we knew what we are doing.

First we made a simple triangle. We all thought it was easy so we did a slightly harder challenge. We made a cube but it wobbled about, so we put triangles at the side and it was steady. We all thought that was easy as well so we made a Bridge from an exact copy that Castlehead High School made. It was much harder! After that we had a test to see who would get to go to the semi-finals so we had to make a transporter that would hold an orange and a water bottle.  Lee and Darren came 3rd; Jorja and Emily came 2nd and Kara and Sarah came 1st.

Thank you Castlehead for coming in and helping us with our fabulous creations!
