Where and When in Social Subjects?
As
part of our Aims and Ethos Day, students had the chance to work as a team to produce
a costume based on a country theme or historical theme. To add an eco- friendly
element to the challenge, all the costumes had to be made from old/unwanted/
recyclable stuff! The results were very creative ..as you can see. Well done to
ALL !
