EPro 8 Challenge

Mrs K Lodge —

On Tuesday, two fantastic Junior School teams took part in the Year 5 and 6 Otago EPro 8 heats.

EPro8 is an engineering and problem solving race where teams race to build structures, solve practical problems and invent machines to carry out simple tasks. We were extremely proud of our teams. All of the children involved demonstrated teamwork, resilience and problem solving skills. They worked together to solve a range of problems including creating a car wash, making a rat wheel and creating a pendulum.

A special congratulations to our Year 6 team who have made it into the Grand Final! Watch this space!

Thank you to Mrs Hope for her help transporting us to and from the event.
