The Xmas
Packaging
Project
This on-line project
is based around the song, the Twelve Days of Christmas.
The aim
of the project is select a food with an association with the
song and construct a suitable Xmas package to send this food
to a friend or relative.
The project could be a technology, ICT
and social studies-based classroom study.

The packages are now ready for
viewing and judging - (Note
all these files are very big and may take some time to download)
