Go Karting

For a friends birthday we went Go Karting. Here is Lawrence getting ready for his turn on the children's track. There are no photos of the rest of us on the adult track as Mom went Go Karting too so there was no-one to take photos!

Lawrence's Birthday Party

We went to Box Hill for a picnic with friends

 A slow start...

 It's a ... fish tank!

Bronze Science Crest Awards

Here are some photos of me making fizzy lemonade for a science project. I had to make home-made lemonade and compare it to lemonade bought from the shop. 

Lawrence helped too!

The fun part: tasting!

Bronze Arts Award Certificate

     We finally have got our certificates for the Arts Awards. We had the ceremony and party at the Orleans Gallery.

Here are some pages from my portfolio book: 

Here is a group photo of us at the awards ceremony.

New Bedroom

Because I am now doing the new course with Oxford which is different to Cameron and Lawrence I decided to get a desk in my bedroom so I can work by myself. I reorganised my bedroom so that the desk could be in a convenient place. I bought the desk from the Charity furniture shop in Leatherhead.

I am very happy and I can't wait to start school in September.

Electronics workshop

We did a course on Arduino circuit boards. You build a simple circuit on an electronic breadboard which you then plug into the computer. You then program the circuit to do different things like flash lights or make a tune with a buzzer or operate a simple robot.

It was difficult at first but once you have worked out the basics it's fun.

This is a more complicated project that I found on You Tube.
