Thea de Malmanche, a Parent Helper at Bayswater Primary School (BPS) recently visited the Devonport Community Workshop (DCW) to get help with a special build project for Book Week at Bayswater Primary School. Book Week is an annual fundraising event, supported by Scholastic Books. It involves book sales, visits from guest authors and getting to dress up as your favourite book character.

The 2024 theme of book week was 'Space'. As part of this, the school's library was accessorised with space decorations and props, including a walk-in interactive space shuttle.
The Space Shuttle was designed and constructed by Thea from BPS and the team at DCW.

Thea had this to say about the project
"Thanks to the Devonport Community Workshop for assisting with this project. The deadline and quality of the final product would not have been possible without the hard work and expertise they contributed. The children were very happy with the result."
"Also special thanks to Lucie and Constance, for helping with decoraring the spaceship, as well as the wonderful team of mums who helped with decorating the library for bookweek."
