Take a box...
Wed 08 May 2013At school today the children were each given a removal box and tasked to turn it into anything they liked. They could be as creative as they liked, and use whatever resources they could find to make their box into something interesting. Year 5 and 6 were also asked to produce a piece of written work to accompany their box construction.
After much discussion and a few false starts, we are the proud owners of, amongst other things: a puppet theatre, a flying car, a tortoise, a toy garage and a pram. Some of the constructions even have electric lights!
Well done to all the children for letting their imaginations run wild and for producing some superb work!
Watch this space for some more photos!

Class 3 work to be displayed in London Museum!
Mon 15 Apr 2013Before Christmas, Class 3 were invited to take part in a project with the MRC (Medical Research Council) which could result in our work being on display in London.
Brona McVittie, who worked with Exton four years ago on the Professor Corkbot animation project, returned to Exton to talk to class 3 about the history of medical research, and medical discoveries using a cartoon book as a basis.
We were then invited to think about how we would like to see medical research develop over the next 100 years and find a creative way of presenting it.
Weeks later, after some thought, a mobile was created entitled 'Cure for All' containing the children's ideas for how to create a healthy, disease free world in the future. From miracle soap to robots, the creative ideas were amazing!
After sending off a picture of the mobile, plus copies of the children's 'write-ups' to explain how each invention on the mobile would work, all went quiet!
However, we have recently received an email asking that Class 3's work be included in the exhibition this Summer! Further details of when and where to follow.
