Y6 & Go...Go...Jo!

Our Y6 children excelled themselves with their end of year performance this week!
Joseph & His Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat was adapted well & performed brilliantly by the entire cast.

The children sang all the catchy songs well & more importantly enjoyed every minute of it.

Well done Y6 - you are a special year group & will be a huge miss when you leave us in a couple of weeks & prepare for your new secondary school.

6G go robotic!

Mrs Greenwell's class thoroughly enjoyed programming their robots to do a variety of skilful tasks.
The children used a series of input commands & watched the robots walk, talk & strut their stuff!

6D in 'Control' with the Lego Robotics

Our Y6 children had a great day at Heworth CLC.
They could successfully operate traffic lights, make a clown's face light up & use specialist 'Control' software.

This was then put in to practice when they programmed a Lego Robot to complete a variety of highly technical tasks.... WELL DONE Y6!
