For Design and Technology this term the children have been busy creating Poison Dart Frog beanbags! They have all thoroughly enjoyed this project from start to finish! They designed their frogs, wrote detailed instructions about how they were going to make them, made them and then evaluated them. I have been amazed at the children’s sewing skills and the care and attention to detail they all had when making them. Ardderchog boys and girls!

Here we are creating our own fish designs….every single one unique, different and special!

We recently read the story ‘The Singing Mermaid’ in Year 1 and we decided to get creative!

The home that the children produced was outstanding, with a lot of thought put into the design and features. Da iawn!

We revisited our recent maths lesson linked to finding half of an item and we used several storybooks to give us inspiration for our designs. They loved eating their creations at the end too!
