Brunel Bridges

As part of our Victorian topic we have been looking at the work of Isambard Brunel.  We were set the challenge of making a bridge that would take a train with Queen Victoria in it.  Only straws, pipe cleaners, string and Pritt Stick glue were allowed.
Plans were drawn first and then the construction began...


















It certainly was a challenge but the end results were fantastic.
Queen Victoria managed to cross most bridges safely, even if some were a bit wobbly!
