Year 2 (Class 6) - Design Technology - Designing & Making Fire Engines
Class 6 really enjoyed making fire engines in DT.
We made the chassis and axis, discussing what materials would be the best choice to use.
We then made lots of elements to make our fire engine more realistic, including ladders, sirens, lights and fire hoses.

Year 2 (Class 7) - Design Technology - Designing & Making Fire Engines
Class 7 have designed and made fire engines in design technology.
The children joined the wheels and axils to the chassis, before creating the fire engines body.
They then made hoses, ladders and sirens to make their engines complete.
They did a fantastic job working independently,…
