Thales Primary Glider Challenge Livestream

Download event information

We’ve partnered with Thales to provide 5 schools with an opportunity to take part in the Thales Primary Glider Challenge, which will be live-streamed on the 22 June 2022.

Up to 45 Year 4-6 students from each school will work in teams to design and build three gliders - each being unique in their form, shape, and materials.

Building teamwork, listening, and problem-solving skills, students will learn how to test these gliders, seeing and learning how different factors such as balance, wing shape, and other forces act together to impact flight success.
