Nick the jeweller Skypes in for a visit

As part of our inquiry learning, we had a Skype call from Nick Hensman who is a goldsmith; he actually makes jewellery.

The questions we wanted to know about were all about the creation of a product and how he develops a product from his first ideas to seeing the final product.  He gave us some good thoughts on how to come up with really great ideas for products.  Nick gets his inspiration from places he's been or seen, like the Pink and White Terraces, as well as from the world around us.

Thanks Nick for coming into the classroom to share with us.
