Christmas fun

18th Dec 2025

Room 5 had a fantastic day full of festive fun as we counted down to the Christmas break! πŸŽ„βœ¨

The children wrapped up their STEM challenge, where they were tasked with transporting gifts (sweet treats!) on a sleigh powered by a Sphero robot. They loved researching, designing, and building their sleighs, then using block coding to make their Spheros move and change direction. There was so much critical thinking, problem-solving, teamwork, and creativity on display! πŸ€–πŸ›·

The excitement continued in the afternoon with a Lego coding session with Roy. Once again, he was incredibly impressed by the children’s ICT skills as they successfully coded their Lego Christmas trees to spin along to music πŸŽΆπŸŽ„

We also enjoyed some delicious toasted marshmallows, a fun game of Blooket, and to top it all off… a special visit from Santa himself! πŸŽ…πŸŽ

What a wonderful, festive day full of learning, laughter, and Christmas cheer! πŸ’«
