Crumble Coding

Year 3 have had a wonderful time at their Crumble Coding workshop today. We have looked at the components of the crumble kit. They have used their electricity skills to set the kit up correctly. They have then used coding to make their buggies move in various ways.

 


Superstars

Well done to all of our superstars this week.

I am very proud that we won the Sport's Trophy this week too.


Ash Randall visit

Today, we were lucky enough to have a visit from freestyle footballer Ash Randall. He showed us lots of his amazing skills and we couldn't wait to have a go at break and lunch time ourselves. We were impressed to find out that Ash has 25 world records for his freestyle football skills and also has an award for having over 100,000 subscribers on YouTube. He said the main things for becoming a great freestyle footballer are determination, perseverance, passion and honesty - some of our sporting values!

Scientists in year 3

We have continued to work scientifically in our science lessons. Last week we looked at the chemical reaction caused when you mix bicarbonate of soda and vinegar to make volcanoes erupt. Today we tried to make slime but actually ending up making goo. We still had lots of fun and explored the properties of the goo.
