Sustainability    

This term Senior McCarthy and Senior McNeil classes have been learning about manmade and natural Australian landmarks. Students observed a video about the building of the Sydney Harbour bridge. Then designed their own bridges on paper. Using waste materials or Lego they constructed their bridges. Students used marbles to test the strength of their bridges.  

Results: Chloe’s bridge  1,902 g

                 Brock’s bridge    914g

                  Adam’s bridge    554g

                 Kiarra and Juliette’s bridge   232 g

                  Jake’s bridge       195g 

                Bartholomew’s bridge 96g

                Oliver’s bridge      63g

Alex participates in the Upcycling elective and decided to build his bridge using wooden off cuts.

Well done to all the students for their enthusiasm and perseverance with this project.
