The classroom has been a hive of activity for our Make Do & Mend Technology project the last couple of weeks. Mrs Jones has very kindly brought in her most precious sewing machine to give the children the opportunity to ‘have a go’, and we have been learning lots of other cutting and sewing skills.
We will be continuing with the project one morning a week until all are finished! They are looking amazing ‘sew’ far!

Year 5 and 6 have been working hard over the last few weeks to research, design and make their own board games. They have all been allocated a class in school and will be creating games to help those pupils learn a maths skill. They have worked so hard; I can’t wait for them to test them, adjust and introduce them to the younger pupils!
