Micro:bit Wearable

This year, we have been invited to Victoria Shanghai Academy’s 2nd Annual Maker Slam Jam. This event will be for 5 selected students from Year 6 that show a genuine interest in coding and electronics. The day will involve the students using a BBC Microbit and some additional resources to make a wearable device. The PYP Year 6 students will travel with Mr. Hesketh, our Head of Learning Technologies, and also be joined by the secondary school Tech Team students and Design Technologies Headteacher Miss Mia Ng.

Some of the students in Year 6 have been exposed to the Microbits during lunch recess in the 207 TechLab at school and been given some devices to play with at home. In the weeks before the event, we will also organise some additional workshops and projects for the students to deepen their understanding of the Micro Bits.
