Technology Challenges

These images were taken by the children as they completed technology challenges and practiced their music skills. For the technology challenges the children were split into groups with children from rooms 12 and 15. They completed three challenges - to make a tree, to make a hat and to make a flower. They had to work together as a group to make the object which had to meet the criteria within 20 minutes. They then had to present their object and say who did what.

Picture Frames

The children have worked through the Design Process to make a picture frame. First they had to make a plan. Then they had to write a list of materials that they needed. They used their plan to make their picture frame. They found out that sometimes plans need to be changed to make the building easier or to make the artistic part more effective. Their picture frames had to meet set criteria. They had to be strong, free standing and attractive. The children all worked hard to produce the best frame possible. We hope you enjoy them.

Have a go Day

Some Hampstead School year 3 and 4 children had an opportunity to try out a variety of sporting skills at Have a go Day. This was a skills building day to encourage children to participate in sports and physical activity. The children learnt hockey, netball, football, cricket and rippa skills. They had a lot of fun and worked hard. We hope you enjoy these images.

Football and Athletics

Throughout the year the children have sessions on various sporting skills.  These are some images from our football and athletics sessions.

Animal Powerpoints
