This week, Year 6 embarked on an exciting journey into the world of banknotes, discovering their purpose, unique features and fascinating historical importance. As part of their learning, the children became designers themselves, creating their own imaginative pound notes inspired by influential historical figures they believed deserved recognition. They carefully considered every detail, from security features and symbols to colour schemes and portraits, thoughtfully explaining the reasoning behind their choices. It was wonderful to see the pupils combine creativity with critical thinking, producing impressive designs that reflected both their artistic talents and their growing understanding of history and currency. We were incredibly proud of their enthusiasm, originality and thoughtful ideas throughout the project.
