Technology G.A.T.E

Every Wednesday afternoon a selected group of children go to a G.A.T.E Technology class. Each week we work in cooperative groups and are given scenarios, different assignments and different challenges. We get given a limited number of materials such as sheets of newspaper, a few metres of cellotape, string etc.  A strict time limit is given. A few of the weeks we did challenges related to stands – some of us did tri/quad pods and others made towers.  Eventually the winning design was a tri pod. G.A.T.E Technology is awesome and really inspiring.
