Led by Miss Bircumshaw, with support from members of the DT faculty, the club’s first session tasked participants with making ‘scrunchies’. Mrs Norris, Head of DT, said the students had “lots of fun while learning a new skill.”

Students from all year groups are welcome to join the Craft Club, which will run with a different theme each month. It takes place every Thursday, from 3.10pm until 4.10pm, in rooms G7 and G9.

It is hoped that items made by students at this club will eventually be sold to help raise money towards the Year 11 Prom.

Next month’s theme will be jewellery making.

Meanwhile, the full timetable of enrichment provision is now available to view/download from the school website: www.withernseahigh.org.uk   The timetable is accessible on the ‘Extra-curricular’ page under the main Curriculum menu.
