Visit from The Word

By Angela Ruffles10th July 2023

We had a visit from Steve Robert from The Word. He brought some Spheros for us to explore. We had a fantastic time learning how to ‘drive’ them and how to make patterns using paint. We even knocked down skittles and hid them under cones – it looked as thought the cones were moving by themselves.
