CAN we build it? 'Yes we can,' say budding builders at Dunnington Primary School after they spent a day making their own mini-houses.

The pupils got hands-on experience of building their own house out of miniature bricks and mortar.

In the morning, the children looked at a variety of construction-related activities, including health and safety and looking at the building process and job roles.

Rob Harwood, of Arden Construction Ltd, based in Alcester, was the resident builder for the day.

The day was organised by the Warwickshire Education Business Partnership in conjunction with the Construction Industry Training Board.
