Design and Technology Intent
The aim at Thrybergh Fullerton is to provide opportunities for children to develop as independent, confident, resilient and successful, life-long learners.
Through the implementation of a broad and balanced curriculum, we aim for our children to have high aspirations and to make an active and positive contribution to their school, their community and the wider society; now and in the future.
To develop our children's cultural capital we will give our children first hand experiences, build resilience and challenge, particularly when thinking about future opportunities. We will strive to help children see themselves as designers, confident with technologies and a knowledge of how to lead a balanced and healthy lifestyle through food technology.

Make Do and Mend
This is our new topic in year 6. We are looking at the war era, and how the woman were challenged to Make Do and Mend. We have looked at adverts from the era and had a go at some of the stitches. Today we tried to master the running, blanket and whip stitches. We all had a great try and showed some resilience when things didn't go to plan.
