Made at Home Competition

The Medina College Design and Technology Department held a competition to celebrate the skills and creativity of our young people. Students were asked to submit photographs of the products they had made in their own time at home. The diverse range of entries made it hard for the judges, they were impressed by the range of skills demonstrated, these included: cookery, sewing, clay models, woodwork, jewellery making and crochet.

Year 7 winners – Kobi D and Marli I

Year 8 Winner – Mylea G

The winners were selected because of the quality of their products and the manufacturing information they submitted. Kobi was chosen, not only because of the fantastic product he made, he also listed the tools and techniques used to make his display stands. Marli’s product stood out not only for the quality, but the detailed information she gave about the 28 recycled pieces she cut for her light. Mylea demonstrated her creativity and explained in detail how she made the three parts, assembled and used the candle holder.

The competition will become a termly event for the next school year. We look forward to seeing more fantastic entries.
