Year 1 children were asked to bring in boxes, cartons, bottle tops, sweet wrappers and any other old packaging they could find to use in their DT lessons. Demonstrating creativity and imagination, pupils worked in groups to design and make jolly jungle animals out of the available junk. Their project was a great success: the children displayed excellent team working skills and have constructed creations of which they can be proud. Good work Year 1!
