Puppet Project

The puppet project we deliver in Key Stage 3 develops our learners understanding of Portraiture, Distortion, Caricature, Scale, 3D Construction and Modelling techniques. We use the completed puppets to develop story telling skills and performances that cover whole school themes e.g. Anti-bullying and School Code of Conduct. We also use them to muck about and simply entertain!
