Loose Parts

What Loose Parts is?

What is Loose Parts?

Loose Parts uses pieces of junk like wood, plastic, tyres,

nets, buckets and much more. You have to use your

imagination and creativity skills to build amazing and

unusual things. The materials are kept in a shed near the

gym hall and are brought in by members of our school.

The Loose Parts team came in and showed the staff a

video, gave the teachers and the students a chance to

play with Loose Parts and they convinced the school to

have their own.
