Lunchtime – Chill out Room NewsWe would like to acknowledge Jayden from Room 14 and Charlie from Room 10 who have worked on their projects in the chill-out room. Jayden worked on his 2 story house complete with a tool truck, car and furniture for almost 20 weeks and Charlie worked on hers for about a month. Charlie has come a long way from just pasting anything on a piece of paper to making this bus with seat belts and curtains. They have both taken their creations home and Jayden said his parents were amazed with it. His top storey opens up to reveal the lower floor.
