# Cells &amp; Bacteria... and Cardboard!

  ![Image of Cells &amp; Bacteria... and Cardboard!](https://files.schudio.com/westleigh-high/images/news/cardboard_cells.jpeg)  15 June 2026

Year 7 have been creating incredible cardboard cells inspired by Lea Anderson to complete their Cells &amp; Bacteria project.

Every single class has produced fantastic work, and we've been so impressed by their creativity and effort. We can't wait to see the finished pieces once they add their mark making - they're going to look amazing!

Well done, Year 7!
