We had our final 'Stay and Play' in Reception class this week where the children's families came to join in with activities in our classroom. Then we had a little presentation for the children to celebrate all of their hard work this year in school.

🤖⚙️ Year 2 had a fantastic time in DT this week!🎨✨
We explored linkages and used our new skills to design and make our very own mechanical monsters! 👾🔧 It was great fun discovering how moving parts work and bringing our creative ideas to life. 😊👏
