Making Piklets

From this to this.

Today was Miss Uden's last day. She kindly made piklets with us so that we could use the butter that we made at Howick Historical village. They smelt and tasted delicious!

Making Minion Mats

We made Minion Mats. In the olden days they made floor rugs. It was a challenging activity tying all those knots using strips of cotton material with Minion characters on them. We tied them onto garden matting. Well done Room 24 for persevering until the job was done!

Miss Uden gave us match sticks and plasticine to make a 3D shape. The plasticine was very tricky to work with.

We had a wonderful trip learning about old fashion Technology. It was very hands on and a unique place to learn about the past so that we can appreciate the present.
