Engineering Club

/in , /by

Engineering club will be held every Wednesday 3:45-5pm

Sign up now places are limited!

There are many reasons why engineering and technology matters at primary level, but the main one is that through its practical nature, it engages children of all academic levels in maths and science.

Children will gain the opportunity to put maths, science and design technology theory into practice in a way that cements their learning.

What sort of projects might your child be involved in?

Because engineering isn’t a standalone subject in primary schools, how it is taught will vary.

Engineering projects that we intend to use may include:

•Build a bridge out of drinking straws
•Design a vehicle that could drive on land and sea
•Create an aircraft that can transport an egg without breaking it
•Build a model of a tower that would strong enough to survive an earthquake
•Make a simple electronics circuit including a bulb and a switch.
•Design and make an Eid/ Ramadan card with moving parts.
