Y2LW Hi-Impact Lego Workshop, by Miss Ward
Date: 12th Feb 2024 @ 5:20pm
Y2LW have had a brilliant morning in our computing workshop with Hi-Impact. The children explored Lego that linked to an iPad. The children worked in pairs to follow instructions to make a Lego windmill that moved when programmed with the correct algorithm. After some exploration, the children then used these building skills to make a Lego car with a sensor. The children then programmed the car to stop and start when they held up a colour to the car's sensor. Each child had the opportunity to participate in building and programming the Lego. What an amazing morning for all!

The children understood the importance of online cyber activity whilst playing an exciting game led by PC Pete. It was a close call, but well done to Bradley who won!
In the afternoon, it was time for Year 6 to build their confidence with a visit from Gautby Road and Sale Sharks. The children were split into two groups and each had the chance to take part in rugby drills and hold a whole array of fascinating reptiles. Even Miss Barron conquered a few fears!

Year 2 chose to sell playdoh and gloop for Enterprise Day. We spent some time deciding on colours and prices as a year group. We made over 150 pots and bags of playdoh and gloop for the whole school to purchase. Some were pink, blue, orange, green and some ever contained glitter! The children worked hard making, packaging and advertising our products to sell. We set up our stall in the hall with our brightly coloured table decorations. Each child had a go at making, advertising or selling our playdoh and gloop, the whole school loved it! Well done Year 2!
Enterprise Day 2024 - how we spent our hard earned profit 📈, by Mrs Harris
Date: 10th Feb 2024 @ 6:58pm
Year 3 raised a total of £43.75 during our enterprise afternoon! The children decided to buy books and stationery. Each class now has a set of 8 'Diary of a Wimpy Kid' books and a stacking pencil each.
From planning to making, advertising to selling, the children had a great time building their enterprise skills, which I'm sure will help them in the future.
Thank you to all the children in OLSE for supporting Year 3!

Year 1 chose to sell keychains on Enterprise Day. We spent all week carefully threading colourful beads onto thread to make them. We made more than 250! Some had clips, some had keyrings, some had letters and others had shaped beads. We even made some especially for the teachers! They all looked amazing! We set up our stall in the hall and put up posters to advertise, then the selling began. Each child had a go of either setting up or selling their keychains. They worked so hard and made over £75! Well done Year 1!
Hi-Impact Robot Carousel Workshop, by Mrs Schultz
Date: 6th Feb 2024 @ 11:10am
Last Friday, Year 1 explored robots with a computing workshop. The children had a go at coding with the iPads. They used special jigsaw pieces to tell their character how to move around a maze. They also used different coloured mats to make a track for a robot car to follow. Through exploration, they had to figure out how each colour mat affected the movement of the car-- i.e. left, right, full turn, go and stop. The next group used a coding app to program a character. The final group were really excited to use an app to program a rolling robot- we had lots of squeals and laughs when the robot came spinning in their direction! Each child had the opportunity to explore all four stations over the course of the session. What a fabulous afternoon for all!
