The S3 Design and Manufacture class today had a challenge of looking at how an idea can be developed through showing alternatives. Lots of ideas to help how they think when creating their own development. #designandmanufacture @BlairgowrieHS

Today S2 rejoined the Design and Technology department. The class started with a creative thinking task - something from nothing. These were the ideas they came up with from a squiggle. Well done 2Q. @BlairgowrieHS #creativethinking #Design #becreative
