The Tallest Tower

By Chestnut Class, in Year 1 - Thursday, 16 October 2025

This week in PSHE, Chestnut class have been looking at how to work well with others. We were put into groups with children that we might not spend much time with and were given the challenge of building to tallest tower! We had a selection of resources to use including paper, cups, Sellotape and paper clips. First, we had time to discuss the best way to build our tower working on our skills of turn taking and listening. We then had 10 minutes to build the tallest tower. We had so much fun and the group who worked best as a team managed to build a very tall tower!
