The Competition
On Thursday 8th June 2023, we took two schools across the UK on a trip to the Arctic. We explored the question, ‘What is so cool about the Arctic?’.
In addition to the many and varied activities completed during the day, pupils were challenged to create an igloo using only a base template and a box of sugar cubes provided. Westlands Primary School was unable to source sugar cubes and therefore we are looking to crown a winner from each school, to ensure the competition is fair!
Our mini explorers and expert igloo constructers have now submitted their unique igloos for judging. Please cast your vote below, before the end of the day, Friday the 16th of June. The two winners will receive some exciting educational goodies from Wicked Weather Watch.

Brooke Hill 4 gains my vote … has protection from the harsh elements, is stable and displays a clear entrance.
