R.E.

In R.E. we have been learning about Judaism. We were lucky enough to have a lady named Mandy visit us from the Whitefield Hebrew Congregation and talk to us about what it is like to be Jewish. We looked at lots of interesting items from the Jewish faith too.

Design Technology

In D.T. we have been designing houses for a purpose. We thought about who our house was going to be for and, after drawing and labelling it, began making it. We have had to solve problems such as how to make the furniture or floors more stable, which ways to join the objects together and how to make furniture.
