6R: Square Numbers Investigation

We had a challenging but enjoyable maths lesson today; the challenge was to order the numbers 1-17 so that each adjacent pair had a sum which was a square number. The challenge was met with lots of success and we had pupils who were proud of their perseverance.

I wonder if it is possible with cube numbers? I wonder if it can be done with the numbers 20-37?
