Innovation topic - Building a Shelter Challenge

Our challenge was to build a shelter that had a roof strong enough to hold a carpet mat and big enough to fit a person in.
We could use newspaper, paper, cellotape and string. 
Some children drew plans and some didn't.
Some shelters were successful and some weren't, but we all enjoyed the challenge and could think of how we might build a better shelter next time.

Lollipops - Arts week

    
    We had great fun making lollipops by rolling and rolling newspaper into lollipop shapes then painting them with bright colours.
