Ahoy there! A very productive project launch with P4-7 @AvonbridgePS and @DrumbowiePS as they begin their voyage to becoming marine engineers and boat builders 🚣. Taking a risk, showing resilience and encouragement were in evidence as they helped each other make origami boats.

[SingleStepsLearning @SingleStepsBlog]
