P5 Boat Challenge

Mary Queen of Scots traveled back to Scotland on a boat.  We carried out another Critical Skills Challenge to put our technology skills to the test.  We had to design a boat which met the following criteria:

  • made from junk materials;
  • between 20 & 30 cm long;
  • able to float upright in the water without being held by anyone or anything, even when there are waves;
  • able to hold 5 x 5g weights to represent Mary and her four friends while sailing.

We all tackled this well and none of our boats sank!!  Here are our finished models:
