In Design Technology today we had the challenge of making an Easter Basket just the right size to hold one chicken’s egg…… not too big and not too small. We also wanted to see what techniques the children would use to create and decorate their basket.

Some students took great care to measure up and cover their baskets with coloured paper.

Many handles were measured and carefully attached so the basket would be strong enough to carry one egg.

Shredded paper was added to protect the egg! JC did a fabulous job of collecting up to shredded paper and returning it to it’s container. He was a human vacuum cleaner. Thanks JC. Our cleaner thanked you too!

Most students were keen to test their basket with a plastic chicken sized egg. Good job guys! 🐣  🐰
