Balsa Wood Models

P.5 had great fun creating models from balsa wood. We learnt how to use small hacksaws, stanley knives and glue guns safely. We  designed our models and then used our measuring skills to cut the balsa wood to the correct size we needed it to be. Sometimes we had to adjust our plans! Most groups made models of the Rathlin ferry , complete with cars that fitted inside the boat. Some groups designed chairs. I'm sure you will agree that the results were very impressive.
