Pioneering

Challenge yourself and your group with this practical hands-on activity. In your teams, you’ll be armed with poles and ropes and your catapult will be made out of these materials and these alone! Let your creativity run wild, all while learning traditional pioneering skills like knot tying.

Sound like a challenge? You’ll have to practice your problem solving skills and team work to create a successful catapult which will be used to compete against each other. You’ll see just how rewarding your hard work is when you beat the other teams with a catapult you built with your own two hands!
