DT, Year 6

Festivities have entered the classroom at Penpol, with Year 6 planning and creating their own festive hats. Some created hats with a festive theme, whilst others came up with their own idea.

As well as this, the children have also been making their own tree decorations, making Christmas houses with Caroline. They have sanded and painted them and will look great on the tree!

We had great fun making the hats and the houses – Sammy
