Junior 2 had fun in STEM club this week creating marble runs from cardboard tubes and masking tape. They attached them to the windows in the Gables and tried to make the biggest and best marble run that they could in 45 minutes. They were very pleased with their results and they have continued to enjoy playing with them as they pass by throughout the week.

Trains and boats and planes…and cars were the theme in Lego Club this week, and with the excitement of the Music Tech workshop at Princethorpe still fresh in our minds, we had cars and boats galore busy transporting Lego characters back to Princethorpe in style. With Ninjago, Minions Stuart and Kevin and then back to Kevin and Stuart again, not forgetting Bob. We had Iron Man and a new recruit called Glutinous, a very nervous and frightened creature who apparently has great respect for his master Kalmaar, but he was having a spot of bother with travel sickness, so he had to stay behind to look after the farm animals. Carline at Princethorpe must have looked very interesting indeed, with Luke Walker's landspeeder, a Batmobile, a Ferrari 488 GTE which converted into Harry Potter's flying Ford Anglia, a police patrol boat with rubber dinghy, the Ghostbusters crew, and an icecream truck! The process of becoming a car builder often starts from building your own Lego cars and we did build rather a lot this week. Did you know that Lego loves cars so much that it’s the WORLD’s largest producer of tyres and they have even made it into the Guinness Book of Records for their tyre manufacturing? Lego never tires of making tyres!!
