We used electrical circuits to to make our bridges move and even added in lights and a buzzer to warn pedestrians and motorists that the bridge would be opening. We had to work really hard and came up against a few problems but we used trial and error to work out a new way. Well done Year 6. ### Bridges [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/bridges/IMG_5864%5B1%5D.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/bridges/IMG_5864%5B1%5D.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/bridges/IMG_5862%5B1%5D.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/bridges/IMG_5862%5B1%5D.JPG) [![](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/bridges/IMG_5863%5B1%5D.JPG)](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/gallery/bridges/IMG_5863%5B1%5D.JPG) [ Reading Challenge Winners ](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/news/2021-05-28-reading-challenge-winners) [KS2 Stone Age Workshop ](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/news/2021-06-18-ks2-stone-age-workshop) ### News - [Latest News](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/news) - [Events](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/events) - [Newsletters](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/our-school/newsletters) ![Gillibrand Primary School](https://files.schudio.com/gillibrand/images/logo/gillibrand_logo_2.png) #### Gillibrand Primary School Grosvenor Road Chorley PR7 2PJ 01257 274983 #### Social Media - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/people/Gillibrand-Primary-School/61564646614865/?locale=en_GB) © Copyright 2015–2026 Gillibrand Primary School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://gillibrandprimary.co.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
