A Bridge To France 🇫🇷 🌉 Tower Challenge!

Back to News
25th Jan 2023

As part of the “Bridge to France” 🇫🇷 Project, Primary 7 were given a 10 minute challenge to build the tallest tower using cards!

The team with the tallest tower still standing after 10 minutes would be declared the winner!

This fun task reinforced how essential the centre of gravity is when designing a structure of any height. 

The boys and girls had great fun participating in the activity and the winning tower stood proudly at approximately 60cm tall!

Well done boys and girls, there are certainly a few budding engineers in P7!
