School Equipment

 

If your child is registered for Free School Meals, you may apply for a contribution towards school equipment by emailing finance@danebury.hispmat.org 

Art Equipment

For the duration of the Art course, pupils are encouraged to take responsibility for the organisation and storage of their work.  All pupils, therefore, are asked to provide an Art Folder and some basic Art Equipment. Every pupil must come to each Art lesson equipped with a minimum of:

 1 x drawing pencil, 1 x rubber, 1 x pencil sharpener, 1 x sketchbook

The school provides an 'Art Pack' available to purchase through Arbor which can be purchased for £13.50.  This pack contains:

1 x A3 plastic folder, 1 x ring bound A4 Sketchbook, 1 x set 6 drawing pencils, 1 x rubber,
1 x pencil sharpener, 1 x ruler, 1 x set of 12 watercolour pencils, 1 x small box of watercolour paints, 1 x small selection of watercolour paintbrushes, 1 x zip wallet.

Food Technology Equipment

All students participating in Food Technology lessons at KS3 and KS4 will require ingredients every 2 weeks (sometimes more than that), and will need to ensure they bring this in when needed (they will be informed via Arbor). Ingredients MUST be weighed and measured at home prior to the lesson.

They will also need to remember to bring a tub when cooking, so they can take their cooked items home safely.

General Equipment

Pencil case with pens, pencils, maths set, coloured pencils, ruler, rubber, and refillable water bottle, ruck sack to carry books, equipment and clothing.

Maths Equipment

The Maths and Science Departments use Solar Scientific Calculators in lessons, and we recommend that children have the same make and model (Casio fx-85GT Plus).  The position of the buttons and the functions available match those used in demonstrations in class and this reduces any confusion.
