Learning Design & Technology at The Victory Academy means that you
will be learning across 3 different areas.
1)Product Design
2)Textiles
3)Food and Nutrition
Drawing
Practice Always
Makes Perfect!
A skills you will need in every D&T area is draw-
ing. Show us your amazing skills a show us some
examples of your best drawings.
If you’re stuck:
Why not look at tutorials on YouTube?
Draw objects from around your home.
Take pictures and try tracing them to get
used to the shapes.
Making
Get Creative!
In D&T we LOVE making things.
Are you doing anything over the summer holidays?
Do you have a family member that is doing some-
thing you can help with?
Take pictures of you on your own or helping out
to build and create something. This can simply be
a toilet roll project to building a new shed.
Textiles
Try out a few
life skills!
We also LOVE life skills in D&t. Part of that is
learning sewing techniques. BUT we also know that
lots of people do textiles crafting as a hobby—
especially during a long time off.
Take some pictures (or bring in examples) of some
textiles crafting that you have done over the
summer holidays. We really want to see what you
can do! (even if it is just sewing a button on!)
Cooking
Because … Yum!
Who doesn’t love food? Well, part of what we
learn in D&T is how to cook and the importance of
nutrition.
Over the holidays, why not show off your skills
and photograph some of the food you have made (or
helped with) over the summer holidays? This can
be from a simple beans on toast to a full on din-
ner for the family! Bonus points if you can turn
these photographs into a diary of how you cook
it—imagine you’re Jamie Oliver!

Task 2
What is a family Crest? - A family crest can also be known as a Coat of Arms or
Shield of Arms. Think of a crest like a trademark or custom stamp for your family.
Colour schemes and patterns also contribute to each crest's unique design. Even
the shield's overall shape --from round to square and all other variations --holds
meaning. There is usually a motto stamped or engraved prominently on the
crest. Each of these elements represent character traits that the family is known
for, such as strength, wisdom, leadership, agility and resilience. We want you to
research your family crest or design a new one for your family. Below is an exam-
ple of a family crest, in fact, here are some of our
Task 3
As a young historian you must understand that everything has a meaning. De-
scribe why you used certain colours, symbols etc. on your family crest? What
do they mean?.
