ArKIDtects in Wonderland 16

The Grange Kids became “ArKIDtects”!

Over the March holidays, the school organised a ‘ArKIDtects In Wonderland’ camp for the students. Our ‘Cre8tors’ got into action and journeyed through seven architectural “wonders”. They had to scavenge for recycled materials to build some of the “wonders” and also got to learn about the architectural wonders in the process. Find out more through our photo blog below!
