Feeding the birds
This afternoon we went outside to hang our bird feeders we had made in topic last week. We could hear all of the birds chirping. Class 1 really hope they enjoy the feeders!

Robots!
We’ve been busy in Computing today learning all about ‘commands’. The children had a great time programming their robots with their chosen commands and then watching them go!
