The junior school children get creative with monsters and pop art.

Ttook on some exciting new projects. Form One pupils designed and built a castle using junk modelling. They also learnt about pneumatic force and created some fantastic monsters. In Upper One, the quiz board project was a great success. This was a great way for pupils to develop their understanding of circuits from their science lessons. With Covid-19 prompting much innovation, our pupils learnt about some of these before designing their own solutions to emerging problems caused as a result of the pandemic. Lower Two pupils created night lights by building a wooden frame and experimenting with opaque and translucent materials. Upper Two learnt how to create digital art using design software on the junior school iPads and produced impressive self-portraits building on their pop art work in art lessons.
