2015 Aqualibrium Competition
The 2015 Aqualibrium competition held in April saw some of the Western Cape’s bright young minds gather at UCT’s New Engineering Building. Eighteen teams of three from nine local schools took part in the event. The morning kicked off with a warm-up challenge involving the elevation of a marshmallow by a structure built from spaghetti. With one minute to go and still no clear victor, team Parel Vallei 2’s Eiffel Tower like structure emerged highest.
