#ArborDT - where the magic happens 😉
STEM Day - exploratory learning through creativity and curiosity to enhance students’ understanding. Wonderful to see all year groups so actively involved in their learning. #stem #problemsolving #circuitdesign @ArborSeniors
Building modelled #DaVinci bridges.
No fixtures or fittings just physics, friction, accurate assembly & a splash of good luck 🤞
Sir?
“Can we #Lasercut a design for a birthday present??”
YES WE CAN!! 💥 🤩

Lots of amazing 🤩 end of year photos 📸 coming up from all of the amazing projects that have happened in #ArborDT 🍃 from our @ArborSeniors. Like these great wooden #toy cars 🚙 in Y9! Considering practical accuracy, dimensions and ergonomics and materials and finishes!! 🎨 👏
Sound Word 🔊in the workshop this term from @ArborYear8 in #DandT this term - designing Passive Amplifiers📣, developing our CAD skills & modelling processes, focusing on scale, accuracy & competency in the workshop @ArborDubai @ArborSeniors
Awesome Work from our @ArborYear9 in #DandT this term - designing Pewter Key fobs, working through our iterative design processes, modeling strategies, while understanding & appreciating the influence of biomimicry. @ArborDubai @ArborSeniors
Very proud of the @ArborSeniors demonstrating the power of air with the #DysonSchools project. From initial concept to final product our students have collaborated on each stage of the project. @Dyson_Arabia #DysonSchools #ArborDT
Final update from our students who have been working on the #DysonSchools project. Developing a vacuum cleaner using just a bottle, motor and a bucket of imagination. Very proud of all they have achieved. @ArborSeniors @Dyson_Arabia
An update from one of our students working on the #Dysonschools @Dyson project, demonstrates the depth of thought & consideration💡 they have gone to in attempting to produce an accurate 'Air strip', monitoring dust particles in the air. #ArborDT🛠️ @ArborSeniors 🌿AMAZING !!!👏
Here is the update for our #dysonschools project. The team @ArborSeniors 🌿are constantly developing their ideas & promoting their design thinking #ArborDT🛠️ to consider all options available to them. Well done 👏
