Years 4, 5 and 6 Shine in Collaborative DT Project with Temple Moor High School
Posted 15th July 2025
Throughout the academic year, pupils in Years 4, 5 and 6 at TNHPS have been immersed in an exciting and enriching Design and Technology (DT) project. This initiative, developed in collaboration with the DT department at Temple Moor High School, has provided a fantastic opportunity for our students to explore the design process from concept to creation.
The project began with each class researching and designing a product inspired by their class animal. Guided by their teachers and supported by the expert DT team at Temple Moor, the children engaged in thoughtful discussions, creative brainstorming, and hands-on design work. Their ideas were imaginative, innovative, and reflective of the unique identity of each class.
Once the designs were completed, each class selected a winning concept to take forward. The chosen students then visited Temple Moor High School, where they had the chance to bring their designs to life using specialist tools and equipment. This experience not only enhanced their practical skills but also gave them a taste of what DT looks like at secondary level.
The staff at Temple Moor were full of praise for our pupils, commenting on their enthusiasm, creativity, and exemplary behaviour. They described the children as a true credit to TNHPS—and we couldn’t agree more!
We are incredibly proud of all the students who took part in this project. Their hard work, teamwork, and dedication have been truly inspiring. A huge thank you to the staff at Temple Moor High School for their support and collaboration, and to our own teachers for guiding the children through such a memorable learning experience.
