Projects

 We have been working on projects over the last few weeks. In pairs, the children were researching a country that is taking part in the Women's Rugby World Cup. They researched their countries women's rugby team along with lots of fun facts and information on traditions, food, culture, landmarks and. weather. We had great fun presenting the projects this week, with children dressing up in their countries colours and baking some food from their country to share around. Below are just a few facts from the projects. We look forward to the next project!

Science week - Egg Drop Challenge

This week 4th and 5th class took part in the egg drop challenge as part of Science week. We discussed plans for their creations in school, resulting in lots of great ideas e.g. ideas to slow the descent and different ways to cushion the egg. Students built their own egg drop containers at home and were excited to try them out in school on Friday to see if their egg would make the drop from our classroom window to the yard without a crack. It was amazing to see how many survived the drop. Also, by some miracle, we witnessed one container open mid descent and the egg fell out and landed (unbroken, with just a little crack) on the tarmac. What a sight! Look at some of the amazing egg drop creations below!!! Image 1: The amazing egg that fell out of the container and survived!
