What happens when you combine creativity, teamwork and a real-life design challenge? You get a classroom full of budding food designers!

Class 3 and 4 have been putting their Design & Technology skills to the test with an exciting brief from Weltons: create a brand-new sandwich worthy of a place on their menu.

Working in teams, the children researched ingredients, explored flavour combinations and developed their food preparation skills, from chopping and slicing to grating and assembling. Along the way, they learned the importance of evaluating ideas, refining designs and working together to bring a concept to life.

The challenge has encouraged the children to step outside their comfort zones, experimenting with ingredients and combinations they may never have tried before. Best of all, they knew their creations were being designed for a real customer, giving the project an extra sense of purpose and excitement.

The finished sandwich designs have now been submitted to the team at Weltons, who have the difficult task of choosing an overall winner. The successful sandwich will then be available to purchase from the deli!

A huge thank you to Weltons for partnering with us on this fantastic project and for helping bring classroom learning to life. We can't wait to hear which sandwich comes out on top – watch this space...
