Year 9 Textiles Update
Since January, Year 9 has been working on ‘Project Festival’ in textiles!
They have been tasked with researching and designing a product that could be used or worn at a Festival.
The project involves lots of GCSE style tasks and so gives our year 9 students a real flavour of what is to come if they select textiles as a GCSE.
Unfortunately due to the lockdown, the most enjoyable part (the practical) was out on hold, but since returning to school, Year 9 have been creating some wonderful tie-dye t-shirts and will be enhancing them further, with their very own screen printed designs next week!
Have a look at some of their fantastic work so far!
