CO2 Cars 2018

First step in making our Co2 cars, is learning how to use our equipment safely and sensibly.  The number one lesson is how to use a craft knife.  Practice begins with the challenge of: CARROT CARS! 2 kebab sticks, 1 carrot. Can you make a car with turning wheels?

Next is the designing and shaping of the cars.  The children decide whether to enter the best looking category or the fastest car.  Each car can be judged on both.


Best looking means you can add however many bits you like.  Maybe like this for instance...

The other trophy up for grabs is the Fastest Car.  This means the design must be slick and low and super areodynamic.  Maybe a bit like this....

Here are some photos of our cars getting ready to race!

Finally after a lot of hard work and creativity the finished cars are ready to race.

RACE DAY!
