Fun in Computing

Year 2 have been enjoying the current computing project - making their own 'Space Invaders' style game using the Sketch Nation app on our iPad's.  

This week they were looking at the more advanced settings and have created their own backgrounds, main character and enemies and even composed their own sounds to go along with the game!

Olympic Torch Excitement!

On Tuesday, the Year 1 and 2 children welcomed Izzie Fenny into school.  The children have been learning about the Olympics as part of their IPC unit 'Celebrations'.  Izzie was one of the UK's 8,000 torch bearers for the 2012 London Olympics and was nominated by her college tutor for being an inspiration to others due to her fundraising efforts for the Cystic Fibrosis charity.  As well as the Olympic torch, Izzie brought her track suit into school to show the children and talked about her experience.  The highlight for the children was having the opportunity to hold the torch - a very special experience for them all. 

Many thanks to Izzie for coming into school to help support the children's learning.
