The unit is based around wood and different fixing techniques. Students have explored a range of different wood joints and gone on to used a few of them to create a trinket box based and designed around their own user.

Pass the Story 2023 - Competition Winner
To celebrate World Book Day, our Literacy Ambassadors suggested we complete a 'Pass the Story' activity during form time. Each form group participated in the competition, and a winning story was chosen. Form tutors began the story with the magical words, "Once upon a time…" at the top of an A4 sheet of lined paper. Next, they passed the sheet to a student who continued the story. That student added one sentence and passed it to the student next to them. The story continued until all students participated.
