STEM WEEK IN YEAR 6

This week the theme of National British Science and Engineering Week was 'Growth'. In Year 6 we had an excellent STEM day. One of the activities was to enter the Create-a-plant Hertfordshire wide paper engineering challenge. We had one hour to create a plant from 4 sheets of paper using only paper folding and strengthening techniques - no glue, tape or stapling allowed. It was quite a challenge! The photo above is Phoebe's water lily. We have entered this as our school winner, into the Hertfordshire competition. Well done Phoebe! Here are a few photos of Year 6 persevering with the challenge:
