After school, Key Stage 2 families became systems engineers and designed, built, tested and improved marble runs to see if they could make the marble roll for the longest time possible. To find out more about systems engineering and to discover more activities you could try at home, click here.
This morning Reception children and their families took a trip to Mars with Little E the robot rover from the book “Are we nearly there yet?”. When they got there they designed the Mars landscape and built Mars rover vehicles to explore this new world.
