Tackling technology


In the autumn term Primary 6 took part in an exciting technology project, organised by Sciennes' science specialist, Mr McKenna.

Using technology supplied by Heriot-Watt University, P6 built, explored and customised robotic vehicles.

We experimented with controlling them directly, using a cable controller, and by using the robots' sophisticated sensors to allow them to operate independently.

P6B celebrated the end of the projects with a game of robot 5-a-side. After a hard fought match, the final score was an honourable 0-0.

Special thanks to 6B's commentary team - Megan, Grace, and Brad!
