Photos from Trinity Primary School's post What a wonderful week in Year One! Our DT superstars have been busy exploring different techniques for strengthening materials and thinking carefully about their designs as they begin planning their very own chairs. We’ve also been playing the role of young scientists during Science Week, closely monitoring our sunflower seeds. The excitement was real when we spotted several little shoots and even a root beginning to grow! We can’t wait to see what happens next. 🌱🪑✨ #DTWeek #ScienceWeek 7 Likes

Photos from Trinity Primary School's post What a VERY busy but creative week Year 4 have had making their shell structures in DT. 😁 We started with practising our finger fluency skills to make different nets. 📏✂️ Next, we used our knowledge of making nets to create shell structures. We then used these shell structures to create our own cardboard chairs. We even managed a trip to Latham High School to use their CAD software to help with our designs. 🖥️⌨️ Cardboard has been here, there and everywhere but the children have learnt a set of new skills and used them creatively to produce their own products for a purpose. Well done Year 4 🤩 10 Likes
