Science and ICT

This week we had pupils from Parkview Secondary School attend to do sessions in Nxt Programming. A variety of tasks were given to pupils which would enable them to gain an insight on how robots work and can be programmed to do specific manoeuvres.

Pupils worked really hard inputting accurate programs to allow their NXT to navigate around a pre marked board. Allowing them to achieve set objectives for various levels in the key stage.

Also this week saw the completion of Calthorpe's Robin Hood Project.

Pupils from Calthorpes School acted out scenes from Robin Hood and who wants to be a millionaire, adding their own script and dance choreography. All the scenes were filmed by the CLC staff and then edited to produce a dvd which was premiered at Calthorpe School.
