Day done and a TD day tomorrow, lucky students with their extended weekend. 
Really, really pleased with the Year 7P group this afternoon and I think they are rather proud of the work they did today:


Desk Tidies that show a range of skills; finger joints in wood, shape cut out using coping saws and pillar drill; vaccum formed trays and acrylic tubes measured and bent into shape using the Strip Heater and Heat Gun.
First time through with this project and it is going well :)

Year 7C this morning and their Danish Pastries:




Manic morning planning:
 Above, my Learning Group 8O2 are taking it in turns in small groups to run Christmas themed sessions.  1st group yesterday ran a Maths themed Christmas quiz.  Today the next group are running a decoration competition for the room!!


Year 7 practical Danish Pastries first followed by Christmas cake demo for the Year 10B group, just got 5 minutes peace before the mayhem!! :)
