What do I do?

• Print out the template and use this to help you design your console
• If you’d rather, you can draw your design on A4 paper, but make sure you include both top and side views.
• The console is the bit in the middle of the Tardis where the Doctor has all his controls.
• You can include notes which tell us about the features of your design.
• Did you know, all consoles have six sides, so make sure you include all six panels on your design.
• There is no word limit and you can use any art method you’d like, such as pencils / paint / computer design etc. However please don’t stick anything to your design.
• You need to use stuff you would find around the house in your design – things like light bulbs and teapots!

Entries will be judged in three different age categories:

• 6 and 7s
• 8, 9, 10
• 11 and 12s

The closing date is 2 November 2009 at 5pm. The ultimate winner will be chosen by Matt Smith.
