Year 7 PSHEE Day - Design a theme park

Year 7 have been very busy today, designing their very own theme parks, and seeing who could make the most money.

Hre are some of the facts and figures they were given... (and yes that is me and my family in the first picture!)

Competition was fierce, with students desperately trying to keep within the £500,000 build

budget, and keeping their daily running costs down.

After an early 3 day press viewing to test numbers, designs were tweaked, car parks improved, and rides added. Team also scored each others designs in a trade fair to increase advertising and therefor getting more paying customers through the door.

In the afternoon gates opened at the parks, with the number of visitors dependent on numbers of rides, cost, car park size, and how visually fabulous the designs were!
