Code-it day Friday 17th June.

So far 8 primary schools on the island have indicated they will be sending teams of 6 children to our Science Code-it day.As part of the grant award from the Primary Science Teaching Trust, Barton School pupils will be sharing our learning and resources with other local schools.

Participating schools: yarmouth,Shalfleet, Niton, Wootton,Wroxall,St Blasius,The Bay,Summerfield.

Dear potential code it participants,

Thank you for responding to this idea. It will hopefully be fun and a chance to cross pollinate.

I am not any kind of specialist but am exploring the potential of new technologies.

My plan so far is to have a Science/coding challenge using scratch linked to GPIO boxes.

I would also like to have examples of other coding for the children to experience.

Perhaps each school could bring something along to share as well? I'm very happy for suggestions.

Many thanks

Andy Fessey
