As part of thier WAU topic of Vikings, the P6 classes have been experimenting with boat hulls.

Each child was given the same amount of tinfoil and asked to plan, design and construct a hull to hold the most weight. 

The children then tested thier hulls by placing them in water and adding marbles one at a time to see how many marbles they could hold before sinking.

After this we carried out a plenary session where the children decided if they would make any changes to improve it.
