Year 5 on a Coding Mission

30 Oct 2018

Yr 5 were surprised with an incursion about coding! We learnt about the basics of coding and created a simple, 'Flappy Bird' style game. We learnt how to make the characters move, how to control them and how to create multiple levels.

 

Code Camp World provided the tutorial for the day and they were very friendly to us and told us tips and tricks which we could access at home to play around with. This hour and a half was all about coding and technology which gave us a big chunk of knowledge to take on in the future. We had so much fun and it certainly kick-started our day. We got to add coins, choose our own characters from a vast selection of weird, wild and wacky choices. We made different kinds of levels, mechanics and behind all of this was the learning and striving to code it right and nail the game to bring it to its fullest potential. We were all disappointed when it had finished until we were told we could work on it at home and continue to make, code and have fun with all our games!


We all thank the teachers very much for this exciting incursion and we hope it will happen again soon!

 

Patrick, Marcus and Christian working on their game.

What a wonderful morning celebrating our amazing dads! It was so special to see so many fathers, parents, and friends join us for assembly, classroom visits and a delicious morning tea. The children loved showing off their work and classrooms, and our assembly was a highlight with performances from our choir, band, dancers and classes- thank you to all the staff and students who made it so memorable. A huge thank you to our P&F team and volunteers for organising the gift stall and morning tea, and to our teachers for welcoming everyone into their learning spaces. Happy Father’s Day to all our OLA dads- you are true heroes to your children!
