Solar powered boats

The Year 5 children from Oak Class and some of the year 5's from Elm class went to West Leed's CLC for the day to learn how to make their own boats that were powered by solar panels. They had to build their boats and connect them up to the solar panels to make their motor power the boat across the water.

 Check out some of the pictures of the day and see how well they got on....
The boys are testing how the strength of the sun that will be converted in to energy.
