Scratch – Lost In Space
I have been learning how to code for Code Club. I used a website program called Scratch to make an animation called Lost In Space.
To code I have to drag blocks onto the right hand side and test them by checking the animation on the left side by pressing play.

My Brilliant Half Term
Monday
Rivington Pike
On Monday we went to Rivington Pike up to the top and I only had one rest on the whole journey which was at the top of the Pike, so I was exhausted by the time I got to the top! The view was the best I’d ever seen it I could see so far out!
This is the view from the pike.
We were going back down the Pike, but we went a different way I’d never been before. At last we were at the bottom of the Pike and then we went and had a drink in the Great Hall Barn and I had a hot chocolate. Mmmm! 🙂

Spending WHSmith £20 Gift Card
On Friday we went to WHSmith in Manchester to spend our £20 Gift Cards from Uncle Bob Auntie Lauren and Brandon. First we went to Debenhams for Georgia to spend her £25 voucher and I looked at a lot of things that I really liked there were so many of them!
Then we went to WHSmith and I bought three books for the price of two which were The Person Controller, Tom Gates Everything’s Amazing (sort of), Tom Gates Genius Ideas (mostly) and a Brainbox The World.
BrewDog
Afterwards we went to BrewDog and I started reading Tom Gates Everything’s Amazing (sort of) and had a apple fritz which was delicious.

After that we went out for tea at Yard and Coop and we had buttermilk fried chicken, sweet potato chips and normal chips and sauce for mains, I had a Mama Mia sauce which is just an Italian pasta sauce which was really nice.

Our sides were Not chicken which is Halloumi in breadcrumbs, slaw and amazeballs which are corn balls.

For dessert we had two brownies which were amazing.

I really enjoyed the whole of my half term and would love to do everything again! The buttermilk fried chicken was delicious and so were all the sides, Friday was probably the best day of the whole week and Yard and Coop was probably the best thing!!!

Christmas At Sky High Adventure
Have you read about my last experience at Sky High Adventure?
If you haven’t click here. On my latest blog from Sky High Adventure I had a invite to go again and meet Santa and do one of the activities again either the High Ropes or the Clip’n’ Climb. I chose Clip’n’ Climb since it was my absolute favourite thing in the whole place. I was allowed to take a friend with me, so we asked Ashton to come and he said yes. When we got there we saw a huge Christmas tree.
Clip’n’Climb
Clip ‘n’ Climb
When I went in to the Clip’n’Climb area I went on the different walls that I didn’t manage to complete with school one of them was really difficult with ropes hanging down to pull yourself up. We had races on some double sided ones. I got to do the Drop slide, The Leap of Faith and a stair thing where you stand on tower things and go higher and higher.

BFG Pantomime With School
On Friday 4th December I went to the Octagon theatre to watch The BFG from the book by Roald Dahl.
Octagon sign
The BFG (standing for Big Friendly Giant) had huge, orange hair as dark as an orange.
The BFG and Sophie
Showing dreams to Sophie
Making a dream to take to the queen
The Bloodbottler, the Fleshlumpeater and the meatdripper all gruesome giants eating little children (little chiddlers) snatching them from there beds like peas in a poddle in the witching hour.
Showing Sophie the other giants
My favourite part of the whole pantomime was when they were in Buckingham palace contacting the BFG from the lawn with a gigoontic (gigantic) iPhone. Here are some pictures of a leaflet I took home.
