Y10 PROJECT DAY

Year 10 recently braved the snow to make their way by ferry to the O2 Arena where they were split into groups and set the task of redesigning the VIP area of Matter Nightclub.

To start the day at the 02 students experienced the thrill of a real nightclub dance floor which vibrated with the music! Teams then had to plan the refurbishment whilst keeping to budget and working to a time limit.

All the teams worked hard to produce some very impressive design ideas which they then had to present to a panel of judges in a "Dragons Den" lair.
