Cross Curricular Work These robots were made while we were studying God's Lordship. We looked at issues of power and authority in all areas of the curriculum. The soldering of the flashing L.E.D.s and the forming of the wire frame developed technological skills while the design and decoration developed artistic talents. |
|||
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|||
|
While making the robots pupils were also studying political systems, learning about electricity both in science and in history, looking as world energy sources in geography and drawing pictures of electrons in art. |

Sewing Kits These sewing kits were made by 11-13 year olds as part of the life skills course. They were made while we were looking at God's provision. His provision for us means that we must take responsibility for the things that He has given us. It is good to see the pupils actually developing the positive character that is being taught about.

Model Aircraft These model aircraft were designed from scratch after studying some of the basics of aerodynamics. |
|||
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
After a study of styles of existing aircraft designs were tested in card, designs refined and then implemented in balsa. Elastic band power gave them a short flying range. |

Wheelchair This electric powered model wheelchair was designed to put technology to a good use. Its four-wheel drive construction and low gearing enabled it to climb over obstacles easily. The back hinges down and legs fold out to produce a quick conversion to a bed. |
