On Monday 30th April, Preston Park had some visitors from Denmark to see the iPad2 scheme currently running in Year's 4, 5 & 6. The visitors were very impressed with the teachers, lessons and children and have asked if they can come again in January!

Year 5 children enter 'Make IT Happy' competition!
6 children in Year 5 have created their own App for an IT competition called 'Make IT Happy' whereby they had to think of an IT project that could keep children and the wider community healthy. The children decided on keeping children physically healthy and have designed an App with an Olympic twist!
Watch the video above to see the children's idea and how they created their App. Finalists will be announced in the next few weeks and we wish them good luck!
Do you have an idea for an App? If so, speak to Mr Meleady or Mr Ryan and they can help your App dreams come true!
Letters from Uganda and Greneda
The children from 5TM have been writing to our link school in Kinnuuma Uganda and have received some letters from the students there. The students from Uganda have been writing about their typical day and have asked the children from 5TM to respond telling them about their own day.
Also, 3EO have been sent some letters from Greneda, Westmorland School, where our very own Miss Mills is a year 3 teacher. We hope that Miss Mills is having a great time and we hope to see her back soon!
