A group of six P7 pupils from both classes travelled to The Royal School, Armagh on Wednesday 20th March to compete in a STEM challenge (Science, Technology, Engineering & Mathematics). Their challenge was to create a vehicle that would be expected to transport a load (a creme egg!!) safely down a ramp and a certain distance across the floor. The children were given a selection of materials to build their vehicle and had to design three potential vehicles before deciding on their final design. Although we didn’t win the challenge, both teams were successful in designing and building a vehicle that met the criteria of the challenge, and most importantly, they had lots of fun using their problem solving skills during the challenge. Well done P7s!
