Westonzoyland Primary School ‘Embrace Opportunities, Choose Kindness, Value Everyone’
Design and Technology
In Year 1, children develop practical design and technology skills through a range of hands-on projects. They explore simple mechanisms, learning how sliders and levers work to create moving products, before developing their sewing skills by joining fabrics using simple stitches. Children also learn about healthy eating through cooking and nutrition by preparing fruit smoothies and exploring where food comes from, as well as the importance of a balanced diet. Throughout the year, they are encouraged to design, make and evaluate their products, developing creativity, problem-solving skills and confidence as designers.
