As the Volkswagen deadline draws nearer (Wednesday 12th November!) year 5 have been working extremely hard to ensure their final product is of the highest quality, ready to be shown in Volkswagen headquarters this week!

Today, we identified Volkswagen factories around the world. Andrew, a manager from the Volkswagen group, came in to explain how Volkswagen decide where to produce their vehicles and parts. We looked at the graphs which showed us how expensive it was to build in each country, how many cars are sold in each country and also the quality of living in each country. All of this information will help us to decide where we would like to build our car!

We have also been car designers today. We have been peer and self assessing our designs so that we can edit and improve them. Many of us have completed our final designs, there have been some excellent innovative ideas from voice control to roof mounted cameras to take photos!
We can’t wait to share our designs and ideas with Volkswagen!
