Maker Space

To help everyone get into the pirating spirit ready for the Dr Cameron Stelzer author visit, the maker space had pirate themed challenges available for students to participate in for the first two weeks of the term.  We were very impressed with some of the creativity of the students who designed and made pirate accessories.  We were also surprised to see which Lego pirate boats floated (and which ones capsized!) once they were placed into a tub of water.

We managed to complete the dinosaur jigsaw (great team effort, everyone!) and we are in the process of setting up a special place in the Library for the Osmo sets which are always a popular choice with our students during breaks.  Keep an eye out for Mo.

Where’s Spot?

    

Remember to collect your “Where’s Spot?” competition entry form from the Library during lunch breaks.  Some of the places Spot has visited around the school are a bit tricky to identify.  You’ll need to look closely at the details in the background of the photos to help you work out where Spot has been photographed.  Each week 2 new photos will be shown in more detail than the competition entry form on the monitor in the Library maker space. 

Once you have given an answer for all ten locations hand your competition form in at the Library for your chance to win a prize.

Entries will close on 21^st August, 2020.
