Rotary Engineering Challenge

On Tuesday 5th March, 23 students from Year 9, took on a wide range of science and engineering challenges at the PCYC.

The event was organised by the University of Newcastle and consisted of the students competing in a wide range of activities against other schools in the Riverina. Challenges include bridge building, constructing a bionic hand with straws and making a trolley capable of withstanding the rocky terrain of Mars to name a few.

Students developed valuable collaboration skills and gained a better insight of the engineering process from the days activities.
