# Houses with Outdoor Lights

  ![](https://files.schudio.com/scotforth-st-paul-s-cofe-primary-nursery-school/images/blog/IMG_0231.jpeg)   13 February 2026   [Mr Taylor](https://scotforth-st-pauls.lancs.sch.uk/blog/author/btaylor)   [Class of 2021](https://scotforth-st-pauls.lancs.sch.uk/blog/category/class-of-2021)

Year 4 have been busy in Design and Technology lessons this half term, designing and making model houses with outdoor lights. They have used their science knowledge to create and understand the circuits they used. They also created a pressure sensor in the doormats, which meant the lights would switch on when somebody came home!
