Year 1 and 2 got the term off to a great start with a trip
to ‘Making It’ in Mansfield on Wednesday 18th April. Many thanks to Mr Snowdon and
Cassie’s Mum for volunteering as drivers and extra helpers, without you we
wouldn’t have been able to go.
The children started their day at ‘Making It’ by creating a
model lighthouse which was a fabulous ending to Mrs Stokes topic on electricity
and Mrs Purnell’s Island Home topic. They thoroughly enjoyed their creative
project.
Despite the downpour from the sky we had an exciting
adventure, discovering how ideas become creations, marketing products through
computer games and lots of other interactive games that showed how a product
goes from an idea to arriving on the shop floor.
My favourite
part was:
"Filling the bottles with beads," Nico.
"Drawing in the design area," Brian.
"Everything!" Keesha
A tired and happy group of children arrived back at school
in time for a story before going home.
