Build in our workshop and race a Billy Cart in our longest-running incursion
Billy carts are easily adaptable and will vary depending on your focus.
Students might like to investigate the different properties and materials of types of vehicles or race against the clock as they follow a procedure or a design brief.
All students will spend time using tools and hardware in the workshop to create their vehicles and simple machines, and of course, everyone (including teachers!) will have the opportunity to jump on the billy carts and burn around our track!
Our qualified teachers are fantastic at tailoring this incursion to suit your focus, so please give us as much information as possible.
Check the ‘Important Information’ below, and we will do the rest.
