Term 2 Coding Club

Last term, our 3-6 coding club students were set a challenge of creating a MakeCode game or an animation using Flipaclip. Congratulations to our 3 winners, Maliss T,

Autumn T and Teo D. 

 

This term, we have started our first ever Jr Coding club. We are excited to see the amazing things that they can create using ScratchJr.

conversations with primary school children.”
