Everyone welcome! # Year 1 DT Super Structures Part 1 ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/images/news/FEF3CBE9-BE38-4FB2-8D23-D93E6E5BC595.jpeg) 12 July 2023 This week in our design and technology lessons we have been looking at different 3D shapes and seeing which shape is the strongest. The children have enjoyed testing the shapes and finding out that the cylinder was the strongest shape because it has no corners. We then started a super structure in teams using card and masking tape. ![](https://st-barnabas-primary-school.schudio.com/images/news/FEF3CBE9-BE38-4FB2-8D23-D93E6E5BC595.jpeg) [Year 1](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/year-1) [Maths](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/maths) [Design Technology](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/tag/design-technology) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/80647DFF-1661-4549-8DAA-73A6CFD0E772.jpeg)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-07-12-year-6-dt) Previous ### [Year 6 DT](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-07-12-year-6-dt) [![](https://files.schudio.com/st-barnabas-primary-school/imagecache/100x100c/news/C3B2B65A-F008-4095-9FBF-E188F551CB15.jpeg)](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-07-12-year-1-dt-super-structures-lesson-2) Next ### [Year 1 DT Super Structures Lesson 2 ](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news/2023-07-12-year-1-dt-super-structures-lesson-2) ### Personal Development - [News](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/news) - [Events](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/events) - [Photo Gallery](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/photo-gallery-category/our-gallery) - [Calendar](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/calendar) - [School Council](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/school-council) - [Attendance](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/attendance) - [Fundraising](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/fundraising) - [Extra Curricular Clubs](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/clubs) - [Little Leaders](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/academy-life/little-leaders) - [Visits and Visitors](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/visits-and-visitors) - [British Values](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/british-values) - [Protected Characteristics](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/protected-characteristics) ##### Location Knowlesly Road Darwen Lancashire BB3 2JA ##### Contact Us 01254 702996 ##### Stay Connected - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/stbarnabasce/) - [X](https://twitter.com/stbarnabasce) © Copyright 2021–2026 St Barnabas Primary School, A Church of England Academy School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://stbarnabasdarwen.co.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
