Year 7 Textiles Club

July 20, 2023/in Clubs, DT /by Presdales School

Textiles club is a great place to learn and create new things as well as meeting new people. This term we have enjoyed making bunting for the annual swimming gala. We learnt how to use the sewing machine so that we were able to put together the bunting. To make the bunting we used scrap materials to save money and be eco friendly. We would recommend this club to anyone that likes textiles and sewing. It is a fun place to be and all of us really enjoy coming.

By Isabella Tilley, Amelie Wooding and Lily Corney

This year we have been privileged enough to be a part of the Year 7 textiles club. We have learnt many great skills and facts. From how to use a sewing machine to learning how to cut bunting and use templates.

In the first term, we used the patterned year 8 bags to make makeup bags. We cut the fabric carefully and then embroidered the outside fabrics. We then chose fabric for the inside and started to sew the bag together. We added a zip to the top and then it was done. Mine has its own proud place in my room.

At the end of the first term, we made Christmas decorations. We chose fabric and then added ribbon and accessories. Once we had sewn it, it was done. Mine was a reindeer. I hung it up on my door and it looked very christmassy.

All of the exams prevented us from making anything in term two but we came back for term three to make bunting for the swimming gala. It was very intense as the deadline was looming closer and Mrs Hayhurst had to take some home to finish. The first step was cutting all the different fabrics. We had six different colours: yellow, green,red, blue, white and purple. This is the stage where we learnt how to use the bunting.

Finally, the day before the swimming gala we began to put up the bunting. We tied it to the fence and it made this nice looking pattern. We had yellow, red, blue, purple, green and white. The wind made them descend and it looked adequate.

Sadly the swimming gala was cancelled but the bunting was still up and looking fabulous.

We would like to thank Mrs Hayhurst for her amazing work and help. This club and all we have achieved could not have been possible without her.

The Crochet Club

July 20, 2023/in Clubs /by Presdales School

We have had a hugely successful first term of crocheting club, with over 40 students taking part.

We have created out first blanket and hope to make more going forwards, as well as moving on to baby clothes and toy in the near future.

Well done to all those who took part, looking forward to our new Year 7s joining the class after their induction day.

Wishing you all a good summer,

The Crochet Club
