Tinfoil Boats 2023

Back to News
2nd Mar 2023

Rang a dó working hard, designing and making tinfoil boats. Each group planned and sketched their design, discussing what features each boat should have. Each group then made the boats using only tinfoil! The tinfoil boats were tested by adding plastic cubes one by one to see how many plastic cubes the boats could hold before sinking. The class record for one of the tinfoil boats was 117 cubes!
