Creative and popular Eggar's Experience Club
Mr Waite's furniture making club has become a really popular extra-curricular activity and is particularly well attended by our Year 7s and 8s. They have learned how to make ‘frames’ using dowel joints and now that that skill has been perfected they are able to create many different pieces of furniture.
A stylish ‘Rennie Mackintosh’ chair was the first project they completed and now they are making tables in smaller groups.
Mr Waite is delighted with the way the students have developed.
"They are now so good they turn up, get everything out and work independently which is brilliant to see!"

Do the Maths! Year 10 students Libby, Evie, Jess and Cali took up the Alton School Maths Challenge this week. Working with four future Eggar's students from Bentley School, they tackled three rounds of very difficult problem-solving maths. They were fantastic ambassadors https://t.co/onVvrb3qcJ 10:18 PM - 25 Jun 2022

It's Fri-YAY and we're celebrating Matt D and his performance at the National Schools Biathle last weekend. He was placed 2nd in the Year 7 Boys race. (Biathle is an event that can involve a runswimrun course, or simply a swimrun course). #SoundsExhausting #GoMattGo https://t.co/pIe7RXQUpa 6:00 PM - 24 Jun 2022
