For St. Brigid's Day, Mrs Garvey showed us how to make Brigid's crosses out of rushes. It's very simple really, but it looks lovely in the end. We made our own wool and lollipop stick crosses afterwards.

Today we tried some creative engineering using lollipop sticks and clothes pegs. We tried bluetak and binder clips too, but we decided we need a lot more of them the next time we try. Have a look at some of the constructions we made (and destroyed!)

Two of our classmates are fantastic engineers. After reading about pyramids and churches, they decided to go home and build examples of the architecture we were looking at in school. Look at how cool they are!
