On Thursday 23rd June Esther, Sienna and Freya went to the JCB Acadamy for their Women in Engineering event where they took part in a range of activities.
'Our first activity was called 'Egg Crash' where we had to make a protective cart that would protect an egg (not boiled) from cracking when it was pushed down a steep ramp. Even the parents had a go! Freya and Esther's team won the prettiest cart award!'
'Our second activity was called 'The crane' which was a difficult activity where you had to build a crane to hold as many weights as possible from the top of it - which was harder than it looked! The winners had a total of 10 weights, however Esther and Freya's team carried zero and probably won them the prize of 'how not to build a crane!'
'At the end of the day we were presented with our certificates and goodie bags. It was a great, fun day out!'
