In the Spring Term, Lower II made an in-depth study of persuasive writing in their English lessons. Pupils invented a product that would enhance people’s lives, created a detailed design and a persuasive advert. Inventions included the C2-D2 robot, the Daydream Pen, the Germ Pen and the ‘Tree of Life’. Pupils then researched businesses that they thought would like to make their product and wrote a letter to persuade them to do so. Letters were sent off and Lower II were amazed to get some replies!

Not only that, Amazon sent some science toys to show how impressed they were with the girls’ inventions and persuasive letters. Both Amazon and Aldi have passed on details of the inventions to their relevant departments. We could hear back with even greater news on the production of Lower II’s products.
