As part of their Technology and Enterprise learning area, the children will be designing and constructing a trophy in the first part of term 2. The best trophy (as voted by the class) will be used as part of the inter-class rivalry we have going with Mrs Beard's class.
This is an open ended project, and the children are free to work with any design that they feel they can create. The emphasis, as always, is on the responsible use of resources and materials, and so recycled material works best with this project. Your child's individual design will determine which materials thay require. Generally I would advise that children bring in milk cartons or soft drink bottles, as many of the trophies that we see in the sporting world are based around cups or jug-like containers.
