Yr 12 Card Stand Challenge

Mr Mistry's Yr 12's have spend a few lessons trying to make a copy of a steel card frame using nothing but art straws. This was a difficult challenge as they were asked to be as accurate as possible.

Here are some before and final photos.

Year 12 Modelling Skills

The group worked in pairs to create working models of collapsible chairs and tables today. The focus of this lesson was to improve their modelling skills and to get them thinking about complex ideas with working parts in challenges and not just to play it safe.

Some were more successful than others, but all agreed it was a worthwhile experience.

Yr 10 GCSE

A few photographs of some of Mr Mistry's yr 10 RMT students working away on their wooden boxes.

Yr 11 DT Club

First night of our Yr 11 RMT club and we have a couple of students who wanted to continue with their projects. Jack is creating a table using Mortis and Tenon joints and Alex is creating a large circular sander or a new jig for his cabinet.

Yr 8 Electronics

Today Yr 8 are creating their circuit for their mood light. Using LDR's and Ultra bright LED's they are creating light sensors that will turn on when it is dark.

Yr 7 Electronics

Today Yr 7 continued to work on their electronics circuits. They are growing in confidence with every lesson.

Year 9 Blue Foam Models

Just a few examples of yr 9 modelling. They were introduced to blue foam as a modelling material to quickly test out their ideas for USB memory sticks.
