The BP Challenge: A hands-on competition where students work as a team using simple materials to solve problems.

To select the team who would go forward to represent FDMC, a number of challenges were undertaken. One such challenge was conducted in the library.
Teams were asked to create a structure that would enable an egg to be dropped from over 4 m and remain intact. There was a great deal of excitement and enthusiasm as ideas were considered and the designs were executed.
The eggs hovered, anticipation builds, countdown to release.... Unfortunately some eggs were hurt in
this exercise. However, one lucky egg was held secure in an innovative and effective design.
We really enjoyed watching the boys collaborate and create. Thanks for sharing it with us, a great way to end the day.
