The challenge requires teams to complete as many tasks as they can in 2 1/2 hours and earn points. They are competing against other schools in the area and are not allowed any support or help from adults.
Our three teams all choose to create an elevator.
The Year 7/8 team of Ollie, Rowan, William M and Andrew created working electronics that enabled the lift to ride up and down with a press of a button.
The Year 5/6 team of Shea, Connor, Leon and Will created a 2m tall elevator shaft!
The final Year 5/6 team of Sophie T, Harry G, Bailee and Emma had an immaculate workspace whilst building their elevator and managed to secure first place! They will go on to compete in Kaiapoi next term against other schools. A great morning of fun, exciting challenges.
