Activities Week - Days 2 & 3 - Project Airfix

After our inspiring trip to Duxford, the children have been making Airfix models. They had a choice of either making a Spitfire or Messerschmitt 109.  Tuesday was spent following instructions and assembling their aeroplane, whilst Wednesday was spent painting and applying the transfers. It was brilliant to see the amount of care taken over this task. The results are particularly pleasing also, especially considering that only 4 of the children had made a model before. Looking at the children's faces, I think that they were pleased with their efforts too!

  1. Great models, nice to see some traditions still enjoyed by the new generation. All I need to do now is to persuade my husband to start on the kit I bought for him in 1970.
