Year 3 - Kuka Robotics

Hi all, and welcome to year 3's class blog.  Our first post is our fantastic trip to Kuka Robotics in Birmingham.  The children got up close and personal with some real robots.  The children got to control, program and play with the Kuka robotic arms.  The children also took part in a design and drawing competition, to see who could create a new Kuka robot arm.
Everyone had fantastic time and a massive thank you is owed to all the parent helpers who assisted on the trip.

Year 4 - SS Great Britan

Welcome to Year 4's blog!!
I can't believe how quick this term is progressing.

September saw us visiting the SS Great Britain and we all went 'on board' ship.
Here are some pictures for you to look at.

Here is 'Eddie' who told us all about the ship and its passengers. Steering is hard work!


 The dressing up was a lot of fun in our workshop.


 We examined artefacts used on the ship.


The pupils tried their hands at old fashioned penmanship!


Some objects were easier to identify than others!
