Some of the year 5 were trying to make parachutes to protect the egg so it won't crack when we drop the egg from a hight of 120cm. (Written by Louis, Jessica and Samantha).

| What a cracking design! |

| Sadly, some eggs did not make it. |
| We had ten straws, four pieces of card, two metres of string, some plastic and thirty centimetres of tape to protect the egg from a drop on the hard floor. The challenge was to secure the egg, cushion the fall and slow it down with a parachute. Previous groups had managed 1.2 metres but one 'smashed' the record by reaching 2.5 metres without a single crack! |
