Year 5: Santa Gnomes

December 19, 2017
Over the last couple of days, Year 5 have been designing, making and evaluating a Santa gnome. The children measured and cut felt fabric with extreme precision then put their sewing skills to the test (which proved to be trickier than first expected!). After some careful work, and a little help from friends, everyone ended with a wonderful decoration that will look great on any Christmas tree!
