P4 Stem Challenge

Our P4 boys recently put their creativity and engineering skills to the test in an exciting STEM challenge — designing and making walking paper dogs!

The activity encouraged the boys to think like engineers, exploring concepts such as balance, movement, and structure. Using only paper and a few simple materials, they worked hard to create models that could actually “walk” when pushed or pulled.

It was fantastic to see their problem-solving skills in action as they experimented with different designs, tested their ideas, and made improvements along the way. The classroom was full of energy and innovation as the boys shared their creations and celebrated their successes.

Challenges like this help develop critical thinking, perseverance, and teamwork — all while making learning fun and hands-on. Well done, P4!
