On Wednesday 4 children from Year 5 and 4 children from Year 2 traveled to the South Tyneside final for Young Engineer.

Year 2 were judged runners-up out of teams from all over South Tyneside.

At least ten other schools were involved, each with two teams per category.

The categories were:

* Engineer ks2  This is where the car had to have a chassis, motor and bodywork. It needed to move in straight line, up and down a ramp.

Our team were  commented on for the aero-dynamic shape of their cars.

* Apprentice Level 1 and Apprentice level 2 KS1

The car  needed to have a good description, design,looks and movement.

Beth and Olivia had obviously got most of these.

* The designs of many cars in our year five were of a good standard and this was a good effort from both the whole class and the two winning team in year five.
