Story Fashion

On Thursday the Learning Hub hosted the house Story Fashion Competition. Teams of four from each house were invited to create and ‘dress’ a model with an outfit that reflected a well-known story. They had fifteen minutes to build using magazines, newspapers and a roll of masking tape each.

The Y7&8 competition winners were:

Most Creative – Cedar with Captain Hook from Peter Pan

Most Obvious Story – Cob with Harry Potter

Best Teamwork – Beech with Little Red Riding Hood

 

The Y5&6 competition winners were:

Most Creative – Cob with Aladdin

Most Obvious Story – Ash with The Three Little Pigs

Best Teamwork – Cedar with Snow White

A big thank you to our fantastic judges Miss Betts and Mrs Monkman. Well done to everyone who took part and supported. It was a lot of fun! Catherine Duncumb
