On occasion we combine the theme of WW2 with a DT day which also encourages teamwork.
Using withies (willow sticks) the children build 1/4 scale ‘wicker’ sculptures of spitfires, Doodlebugs, V2 rockets and barrage balloons. These items remain in the school after the workshop.
The children work in teams of 4 or 5 to create the sculptures during the course of a full day. The spitfire is created by four of the teams (building the fuselage, tail section and a wing each). The Doodlebug and other models are created by one team each.
Due to the increased cost of materials for this workshop, this day is £470 (ex VAT).
