Dear Mead, Cooper and Chapple Room Parents and Friends,
We visited the Yr 8 eduKART workshop on Tuesday as part of our unit, Mighty Machines. It was a wonderful hands on, exciting learning experience for the all the children. Paul and Anthony spoke to the children about the go-karts, their mechanical components and let us touch, look and explore their workshop. It was a quick, but valuable excursion for the children. Thank you to all the parents who joined us on the day!
