Year 5 & 6 Billy Carts Incursion

Our Year 5 and 6 students had an exciting hands-on experience with Supreme Incursions as part of their Design and Technology and Science unit. This incursion gave students the chance to put their classroom learning about electrical circuits, energy-efficient cars and sustainable energy into action by designing and building their own billy carts.

It was fantastic to see students apply their knowledge in a practical, engaging way, testing designs, problem-solving and thinking creatively. Even Mr Santamera couldn’t resist joining in and enjoyed racing one of the contraptions!

The activity encouraged teamwork, resilience and innovation, and it was wonderful to see students’ curiosity and skills come alive as they raced their creations and reflected on how design and technology can be applied in real-life contexts.
