Karris and Jonathan devised an activity in CDC time on Wednesday to motivate their peers to complete a challenging task.

The students were given the task of stacking 7 marshmallows vertically. The students were really well motivated to complete the challenge, partly because it was fun and partly because they could eat the marshmallows at the end!

A great idea from Karris and Jonathan and really well delivered.
