Newton Cap Viaduct

September 19, 2019 by admin

Our topic in history is Learning about Bishop Auckland in the past and how things have changed. The children have been looking at how Newton Viaduct and how the use of this structure has changed over the years, trains used to cross it and now cars. The children have looked carefully at the design and made their own versions in stem work using lego, card, blocks and polydron. The children’s challenge is then to make sure their viaduct will withstand a small amount of weight. Here we go!
