We have now selected Wednesday 29th June as the final day for our hat competition.
The hat competition was initiated this academic year with the Year 7 Beaconsfield High School (BHS) students asked to design and make a hat for teenagers who are being treated for cancer. Through this competition, students in Year 7 are learning about Textiles Technology, enabling them to make informed choices for designing their hats. In 1995, BHS became one of the first schools in the country to be designated a Technology Specialist College.
This has been an exciting competition adding purpose to the existing BHS Technology curriculum. The students and staff have been supportive of this enhanced learning experience. With BHS, JAshcroft selected Teenage Cancer Trust as the charity we would like to support for this project and the charity has provided valuable insight to the students at BHS on specialist needs facing teens who battle cancer.
The final hat that is produced and sold on www.jashcroft.co.uk by 4myhead.com will be in aid of Teenage Cancer Trust.
