Stenton Primary experience engineering at the fantastic Queensferry Crossing and Falkirk Wheel

Last Wednesday the whole school went on a trip to learn more about bridges and Scottish landmarks. We visited Queensferry Crossing and the Falkirk Wheel.

While we were at the education centre for the bridges we got to design and build our own towers, see and learn about all three bridges and dress up in the safety equipment that the engineers use. We had to be good at communicating in our groups, sharing and trying our design ideas and carry out different jobs.

The Falkirk Wheel was amazing because we got to go round and up 25m in a boat and travel along part of the canal. We could see the Kelpies from the boat!
