Mechanisms and Motion!

Year 8 pupils have been busy in Technology, learning about mechanisms and the different types of motion – rotary, oscillating, reciprocating and linear.

Working in teams, they designed and built mechanisms out of Lego to demonstrate different types of motion.

The photographs show just a small selection of the pupils' creations, including a washing machine, and the overall winner, a swaying boat fairground ride!

Well done to all of Year 8 who worked well in teams to produce some wonderful designs!
