P123 BOAT RACE IN THE BURN

The weather finally allowed us to race our boats in Longcote Burn.  We have had a great time exploring different materials, drawing designs, labelling diagrams, testing out prototypes in the water tray and adapting our designs to make them better. We found out that objects that float and are waterproof were the best to use and sometimes found it hard to joins parts of our design together (we tried sellotape, glue and string). Some of us even investigated ballast and buoyancy!

(We also made thank you cards for the welly-wearing adult helpers 🙂 Thank you)
