The children were tasked with creating an obstacle course, featuring tunnels and ramps, which they then coded the Robots to make their way through.Year 6 Sphero RobotsThe Parents Association recently gifted to the Junior School the 'Sphero Robots', to make coding more practical and accessible.Mr Thacker, Teacher of Year 6, said "this has been a great opportunity for the children to deal with problem solving and collaborating to find a solution."Take a look at the Principal's recent tweet, showing one of the 'Sphero' Robots in action!
