Secondary Bridge Building

End of term but still getting those brains thinking. S3-S5 along with Mr Spellacy in Graphic Communication having a go at building bridges. 
With just Some sheets of A3 paper and a limited supply of Sellotape classes were tasked with building a bridge that the class car (yes there is such a thing) could drive over. 
S3-4 had the easier task of crossing a 0.5m gap, with the S5 having to cross 1.5m. 
Working in teams the pupils managed to come up with some excellent designs, Higher Graphic Communication pupils in particular worked hard to build their bridge in a short space of time, working to a scale drawing of their chosen design. 
All pupils had a excellent time and put in a maximum effort as always.
