Catwalk Kids hits Wardley
In September, the Year 3/4 teaching team put on a catwalk show of different fashions from across time periods, as well as different cultures, as a fun and exciting way to introduce our half term topic, named Catwalk Kids, that would enhance the teaching of the Foundation subjects through the theme of clothing.
The children gained an insight into materials used and the reasoning behind this as well as how cultures influence patterns and designs.
They created their own fashion magazine proformas using Microsoft Powerpoint based around observations made.

After researching a lot of information about different materials (Science and History), different styles (History) and the production process (Geography, Art and PSHCE), the children then finished their topic by designing, making and accessorising t-shirts to produce their own fashion show.
They also created their own music, using the software Dance Ejay to strut down the catwalk to.
