Year 4 - Evaluating Their Pizza Creations
In DT, year 4 evaluated their yummy pizzas. They thought about what was good about their pizza and how they could have improved it or made it better. They also discussed whether their pizza matched the design that they originally planned and gave suggestions for other toppings if they were to make the pizza again.

Year 5 DT - Baking Tudor Cheese Pies!
In DT we have been learning food technology. We planned and designed our cheese pies and then had great fun making and baking them! We also enjoyed eating the pies, they were very delicious.
Year 4 - Design and Technology - Pizza Making
In DT, Year 4 have been looking at how to make pizzas and in this lesson they all made their own pizzas using a readymade pizza-base. The children had a variety of toppings to choose from. First, the children spread the pizza sauce onto their pizza base and after that they decorated their pizza with a reasonable amount of toppings. Then they put cheese on top of the toppings and Mrs.Mountain helped to put the pizzas into the oven and take them out. After a little waiting, the children finally got to eat their delicious pizzas.
Year 5 DT - Investigating Food Groups
In DT we have been doing Food Technology, and part of this subject is to understand the food groups, and how to eat a healthy balanced diet. We sorted foods into the different food groups, and were surprised to find out that some food like biscuits and cakes were not part of the food groups on the eatwell plate!

Year 4 Design Technology
In year 4 this week, we have started to practice our sewing in preparation for making our Roman sandals. We worked hard to thread our needles, tie a knot in the end, and form the running stitch. Some of us even managed to create our initial!

Year 4 Design Technology - Roman Sandals
We further developed our Roman sandal designs this week, and tried to really understand the purpose of shoe laces and how we can incorporate them into our designs. We managed to make paper sandals which actually fit on our own feet! Next week, we will be designing our final outcomes, using evaluations from our mock ups.
Year 4 - Smoothie Bike
Year 4 took part in a smoothie making workshop. They had to choose different fruits which they thought would taste nice together before adding yoghurt and honey and pedaling the bike to mix it all together.

Year 4 DT - Making Roman Sandals
This week in year 4, as part of our History topic and DT topic, we have made some 'mock-up' Roman sandals. We had to be very innovative in our thinking and some of us had to start over when we realised we could not get our feet inside! It was great fun, and we now have a good idea of what our real ones will look like.
Reception - Smoothie Bike!
Reception took part in the smoothie bike experience this morning, and although our feet didn’t touch the pedals, we had great fun! The children discussed different types of fruits that they liked and learned how many portions of fruit and veg they should eat every day. The children tried 3 different smoothies altogether; strawberry and banana, mango and pineapple and then one with all of the fruit together.
Year 5 Design and Technology: Investigating Glove Designs!
Year 5 will be learning about sewing to create gloves in DT this term, and we began our topic with an investigation into glove designs. We looked at lots of different gloves for different criteria, including colour, fabric, stitching and decoration. We had a lot of fun!
