Year 7 - Colourful Cushions

By Angela Burden | Posted: Thursday July 2, 2020

Our Fabrics room is the place be according to the Year 7 classes who have just completed their first project - the CUSHION!

It is a wonderful thing to be able to watch our students grin with pride as they admire the gorgeous cushions they have created from scratch. 

On the first session it is hard for some students to believe that they will learn to operate a sewing machine independently. Fast forward 9 sessions and they will tell you that learning new skills takes a growth mind set, perseverance and a positive attitude! They also accept that mistakes are how we learn and realise in here we EXPECT PROGRESS NOT PERFECTION.

Enjoy your cushions! Be proud of the learning they represent. I look forward to teaching you all, later in the year.
