3rd and 4th Class have entered a competition with www.waste.ie
Our Upcycling Project
- We used some old pallets, screws, primer and paint to construct our Friendship bench
- The tools we used to craft our bench were a handsaw a measuring tape, a screw gun, a drill, a set square, sand paper, a pencil and a paintbrush
- We cut the pallets in half and we cut some lengths of timber to make the legs and armrests
- We constructed the bench by screwing and nailing the pieces together
- We sanded and painted our bench
- Each pupil put a handprint on our bench.
- Lastly we made our “Friendship Bench” sign and put it on our bench
