The year 5 and 6 students built their aquabots on Friday! It was tricky... like a giant jigsaw puzzle. They still have to attach motors, learn how to waterproof them and wire up controllers. There is so much learning in aquabots. Part of the programme involves research too - learning about hydrodynamics, propulsion, buoyancy, Polynesian navigation, Netwon's Laws, electrical circuits and short circuits, and so much more.
This year they also have to learn about geothermal Rotorua.
