Sharing our Shine

A group of dedicated Sunnyhills TeXperts shared their expertise with learners from Our Lady Star of the Sea today.  Over the last few weeks, they have been working hard to create workshops and then practice them to make sure they're going to work.  Our learners were helping Our Lady Star of the Sea get some experience with the robots we have so they can make decisions about what robots they're going to to get in their school.  

Our Sunnyhills team did an amazing job on the day, they definitely had their Sunnyhills Shine on.

Here are some of our learners in action... 

Code Club

Many Sunnyhills students enjoy coding so we've setup a code club that runs once a week at lunchtime.  Our current club will run for this term and then we'll look at giving another group of learners a go at code club. 

Our coders are currently using Google CS First to create a few activities and get a few basic skills to use in Scratch.  

We have just signed up for our own CS First accounts and we've been creating our own Google Logo animations in scratch.  Some of us managed to get our logos finished and have received our first CS First certificates.  We get awarded a certificate each time we complete an activity or theme in CS First.  

The Google logo project gave us a few ideas we could use for our animations, many students in our club took their projects home and made them even more amazing.  We created a studio for our projects and will share it via the blog once we've completed them.

In the mean time here's a great project created by Marco.  Can you get the logo to change?  What key/s do you need to use?
