Daniel and the school project
Since returning to school in September Daniel has been working on his school project which was about explorers. He had to choose 3 things to do from a list of suggested tasks so he chose:
- Write a list of the things an explorer would pack in their bag
- Design and draw a flag that you would have had on your explorer ship
- Design and build an explorer ship
Over the last 3 weekends we have spent time working on the project.
Not content on simply writing a list of things an explorer would pack in their bag Daniel also wanted to make the bag and the things that would be packed including a bottle of rum!!! Obviously we weren’t going to waste valuable rum on a school project so we resorted to cold tea.
Tim assisted with the boat building ensuring that the hull was reinforced – he did take it very seriously.
Mummy had to step in on Sunday though as Tim was poorly and the portholes needed glueing onto the ship – we are so thankful that PKD is as blind as a bat and needs contact lenses as the lenses cases made fantastic portholes.
Daniel took all his hard work into school today and as a result he had to go and see Mr Bowles (The Headteacher) as his class teacher was so impressed with the work he had done. He then apparently went on a grand tour of the school showing a number of teachers his handiwork.
We are really proud of the work he did and we are really pleased that he had to go and see the Headteacher for the right reasons.
You can check out his handiwork when the October photos are uploaded at the end of the month!!!
