Design and Technology
July 2026
This week, Year 2 put their Design and Technology learning into practice by making their own healthy wraps. The children carefully selected ingredients from a range of food groups, including vegetables, dairy, protein and carbohydrates, to create a balanced wrap of their choice. They demonstrated excellent food preparation skills by safely using a range of kitchen equipment and followed their designs to create their finished wraps. It was wonderful to see the children making thoughtful choices about healthy eating while enjoying tasting their delicious creations!
