More Project Superstars

We have been inundated on a weekly basis with children who have been making some fabulous pieces to supplement their projects. Kirsty - who has been learning about the Arctic - created a beautiful Polar Bear out of cotton wool before pasting him onto a serene starry back drop.

William managed to find an innovative use for as football... as a globe!






Kie managed to create an African sunset and Serengeti scene from some egg cartons, discarded toilet rolls and a cardboard box. Inspired by the trip to Colchester Zoo, he wanted to make his own majestic lion. Leo, on the other hand, was rather taken by the elephants. He has been able to regal us with facts: their ears are used to help them cool down, they are the heaviest land mammal their tusks are made of precious ivory. Using silver and blue pipe cleaners he was able to design and build an elephant complete with tusks and trunks. Well done gentlemen!


While he has been at home for the weekends, David Sangojimni has been learning about the Mars rover expedition. In his own time he has tried to reconstruct the robot explorer using card and tooth picks. Did you know that the Mars Rover has 6 wheels which have a diameter of about 10 inches? A very interesting project David.
 Have you ever wondered what lives under the sea? Do you know about the clown fish? Holly could tell us that they grow up to 5 inches long. Apparently their greatest threat comes from humans. Having learnt about many different deep sea creatures, Holly created this amazing 3-D underwater scene.
