A stuffed Red Arrows plane, and a pop-up Red Arrows poster, created by twins Isobel and Jemima.

12th July

This week, Post of the Week has been awarded to twins Isobel, 8 and Jemima, 11, from Greater Manchester! After watching Lindsey fly with the Red Arrows, they were inspired to get creative. Isobel has created a fantastic pop-up Red Arrows poster, and Jemima has made a brilliant stuffed Red Arrows plane! For this they have both earned Silver badges!

Using cotton wool for the smoke trails on the poster was a genius idea that looks great!

Jemima has done a very neat job on the stuffed plane. The photo of Lindsey from the film, the use of buttons on the wings, and lengths of wool for the coloured smoke trails are lovely touches!
