Engineer Visit




Last week we were lucky enough to have a visit from Sarah Neill who is a structural engineer. She showed us different types of strcutures and what her job involved. S.H was chosen to help demonstrate how strong a structure could be without looking it. She was able to balance 3 tins of spaghetti on a thin looking board. It was very interesting and we were given a very cook booklet on being an engineer along with this website www.futureintech.org.nz to look at.
