Engineers without Borders Incursion
On Monday our students from 3/4A, 3/4B and 4/5A, attend an Incursion
Engineers without Borders.
Engineers without Borders are people with different subjects, such as Engineers: they build bridges and buildings and more but they don't just leave it they come back after a month. The next one is Electronics: that's about fixing lights, phones and that. Biomedical Engineering: they make prosthetic legs and eyes for people who need them. What we did, we had to build a structure to hold up a lot of marbles. Some had lots and some had only 26 but that's ok, we had so much fun and the winners had 100+ and it was amazing

Engineers without Borders are a group of people from Melbourne University. They all study different types of engineering, one of them is a Mechanical Engineer and he worked on cars, planes etc. Also one of the girls is a Civil Engineer and she makes roads and bridges for us to use. Frankie is a Electronics Engineer and makes phones, iPads, computers and more. Biomedical Engineer which makes prosthetic legs and brains. Chemical Engineer that means they work on chemistry plastics, sunscreen and all that stuff. It was so fun, we got to make floating boat models and we had monopoly money. We then tested them with marbles.
