Year 6: DT

October 27, 2024
This week, Year 6 had their very own DT day where they were challenged at making moving fairground rides in teams. Firstly, they planned a theme, thinking carefully about their audience and purpose. Then, they had to work out how they were going to make the carousels spin by using simple circuits and motors. By the end of the day, all of the teams had successfully created their own spinning rides and all of them were extremely creative! 

Well done, Year 6!
