Harry makes a contribution

Well here is, what we were all waiting for,- Harry has shared his interesting time bridge building.

See what you make of his construction. The discussion about pressure is very interesting and must be a big factor in civil engineering.
Thinking about constructions we still have a few places left on Trebuchet Day, 3rd September, when the Science and History depts. combine to research and build a trebuchet. Want to join us and fire rocks etc. across the new field?
Anyway Harry then must have had inspiration from Polly as he looks at water balloons.

Harry did you actually try heating the balloons or is it all theoretical? Do you think he could have proved his research with an experiment or two? Perhaps if all of 8S have a go then we can show the reliability of this research.
