In Design and Technology, Year 5 students have been busy creating captivating pop-up books specifically for our Year 1 children. Earlier this week, their hard work culminated in the completion of these books, which are ingeniously designed with various levers, mechanisms, and delightful moving parts. The highlight was undoubtedly sharing these creations with Year 1, who were thrilled to explore the interactive elements and enjoy having the stories read to them.
