I Am Festival
On 12th March, young people from Collingham Child and Family Centre attended the I Am Festival at the Tate Modern. The festival is an annual celebration of the creativity, leadership and imagination of deaf, disabled and neurodiverse young people and is a fully inclusive space for young people to explore their own creativity and ideas. They enjoyed exploring the sensory room, decorated their own gold birds and then took them flying around the museum. They had previously worked with the organisation Tourettes Hero to make paper planets representing themselves and their own interests, and they also saw this work displayed as one of the museum's exhibits.

Tourettes Hero visit
The young people at Collingham Gardens got creative during a visit from the organisation Tourettes Hero. They 'teleported' to space via a bubble maker, and spent the morning designing their own planet. They thought about what it would look like, who would live there, and how people would travel. The planet was represented by a paper lightshade and decorated with ribbons, pictures, pens, pipe cleaners, and feathers. The young people's work will be displayed at the Tate Modern in March, during the I Am festival 2026.

Micro Bit plays Rock-Paper-Scissors
In their Computing lesson at St Mary's our eight year old student programmed the Micro Bit to play Rock-Paper-Scissors using block coding. When the Micro Bit was shaken it would randomly generate a symbol to represent scissors, paper or rock.
