Pinewood Derby Cars 2025

In our Design Technology lessons, we designed and made wooden vehicles. They were created with the intention of being played with by Reception children, so they needed to be fun to look at. They were also going to be raced against each other so they needed to be fast.

Making them required a number of technical skills including using hand saws, glue guns, handheld drills and screwdrivers. We also needed to have some artistic flair with paints and pens.

 

The photos below show us racing the cars against each other. 

The final race between 4B's winner and 4W's winner.
