Handicrafts 3

As mentioned in an earlier post, the boys went on a week-long handicrafts 'camp' at the beginning of June.

While Thomas was content to make small things; a model paddle boat, a 'Fortuna' game, and the model climbing frame below:




Henry was working on a slightly larger scale - he came home with a cupboard!

Handicrafts


One of the delights of having school-age children is that at regular intervals you are surprised by home-made artefacts.

Henry's 'technical work' class has moved on from the autumn term's sewing to woodwork this term.

Below two photos of his efforts.

May the giraffes of the world smile on you!
