We collected different types of paper and made sure they were about the same size. Then we folded each piece in half and stacked them. Finally, we added a cover of card and secured them using an elastic band. ![](https://darwen-st-james-c-of-e-primary-academy.schudio.com/images/news/Collage_2024-11-12_16_38_10.jpg) [Year 1](https://darwenstjames.co.uk/news/tag/year-1) [Art and Design](https://darwenstjames.co.uk/news/tag/art-and-design) [![](https://files.schudio.com/darwen-st-james-c-of-e-primary-academy/imagecache/100x100c/news/Screenshot_2024-11-14_08.43.19.png)](https://darwenstjames.co.uk/news/2024-11-12-nursery-art-and-design-creating-hedgehogs-using-foraged-leaves) Previous ### [Nursery - Art And Design - Creating Hedgehogs Using Foraged Leaves](https://darwenstjames.co.uk/news/2024-11-12-nursery-art-and-design-creating-hedgehogs-using-foraged-leaves) [![](https://files.schudio.com/darwen-st-james-c-of-e-primary-academy/imagecache/100x100c/news/Collage_2024-11-11_14_50_07.jpg)](https://darwenstjames.co.uk/news/2024-11-14-year-6-science-changing-the-size-of-a-shadow) Next ### [Year 6 Science - Changing the Size of a Shadow](https://darwenstjames.co.uk/news/2024-11-14-year-6-science-changing-the-size-of-a-shadow) ### Academy Life - [News](https://darwenstjames.co.uk/news) - [Events](https://darwenstjames.co.uk/events) - [Clubs](https://darwenstjames.co.uk/academy-life/basc) - [School Council](https://darwenstjames.co.uk/academy-life/school-council) - [Attendance](https://darwenstjames.co.uk/academy-life/attendance) - [Charities and Fundrasing](https://darwenstjames.co.uk/academy-life/charities-and-fundraising) - ![School Games Gold](https://files.schudio.com/darwen-st-james-c-of-e-primary-academy/images/partners/Gold_Logo_25-26(1).png) - ![Healthy school](https://files.schudio.com/darwen-st-james-c-of-e-primary-academy/images/partners/healthy_school.png) - ![Picture News](https://files.schudio.com/darwen-st-james-c-of-e-primary-academy/images/partners/6_Years_of_Picture_News.png) - ![AP smilestar](https://files.schudio.com/darwen-st-james-c-of-e-primary-academy/images/partners/Screenshot_2026-07-27_10.26.27.png) ##### Location St James Crescent Darwen Lancashire BB3 0EY ##### Contact Us 01254 703260 ##### Stay Connected - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/Darwenstjames) - [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/darwenstjames/) © Copyright 2021–2026 Darwen St James’ C of E Primary Academy School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://darwenstjames.co.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
