What's Your Child Learning This Term...
Each half term the children in our amazing coding clubs will study a new module where they will be able to showcase and improve on their skills!
​
We publish our curriculum below so that you can see exactly what your child is learning and why. You can even use the links to play along with your child at home after each session. Please don't jump ahead of us though as we don't want the children to repeat content.
SPRING TERM 2026
KS1 - Coding with Animals
This term, KS1 pupils will be introduced to the basics of coding through fun, game-based learning using CodeMonkey and interactive digital activities. Children will develop early computational thinking skills by solving puzzles, guiding characters, and completing simple problem-solving challenges.
​
Lesson 1:
Children will begin their coding journey by exploring beginner CodeMonkey challenges, learning how to give simple instructions and understand sequences. They will then take part in a fun interactive activity to build logical thinking and engagement.
​
Lesson 2:
Pupils will continue progressing through CodeMonkey levels, focusing on problem solving and recognising patterns. A second activity will support early maths and logic skills through coding-style gameplay.
​
Lesson 3:
Children will develop early keyboard confidence using a fun typing activity, helping them become comfortable using a computer. They will then return to CodeMonkey to apply their new skills through guided challenges and explore another simple computing activity.
​
Lessons 4–6:
TBC – These sessions will continue to build on coding skills through further CodeMonkey challenges and interactive activities, tailored to the children’s progress and confidence levels.
KS2 - Coding with Animals
This term, KS2 pupils will build coding confidence through structured challenges on CodeMonkey, alongside creative computing activities that develop logical thinking, typing skills, and digital understanding.
​
Lesson 1:
Students will begin with introductory CodeMonkey challenges, learning how to control characters using code and understand how instructions affect outcomes. A secondary activity will reinforce logic and sequencing skills.
​
Lesson 2:
Pupils will move onto more advanced CodeMonkey tasks where they will apply problem-solving strategies and learn to debug simple mistakes. A fun logic game will support computational thinking development.
​
Lesson 3:
Students will strengthen their typing skills using an interactive BBC activity, then continue progressing through CodeMonkey challenges to build confidence and independence. A short computing systems activity will help deepen their understanding of how technology works.
Lessons 4–6:
Children will continue advancing through CodeMonkey levels at their own pace, creating solutions, improving accuracy, and developing persistence. Additional creative coding/chatbot activities will be introduced to extend learning and encourage independent thinking.

Podcast Club Year 4-6
Our exciting new Podcast Club gives children the chance to become real creators as they learn how to plan, script, record and edit their very own podcasts. Throughout the term, pupils will explore fun skills such as researching topics, writing engaging scripts, creating intros and outros, interviewing, debating, storytelling and adding sound effects. They’ll also learn how to improve their recordings through listening, evaluating and simple editing techniques.By the end of the programme, every child will have produced their own polished podcast projects while building confidence, creativity and excellent communication skills.
NumberFun Year 1&2
Our Number Fun Club makes learning fun, engaging, and confidence-boosting. Pupils develop their arithmetic skills through hands-on activities with an abacus number square, counters and fraction walls. The club supports core maths topics while helping children build confidence, logical thinking, and a positive attitude towards maths.
Creative Me Club - Reception and Year 1&2
Creative Me Craft Club is a hands-on crafting session designed for Reception children. Pupils enjoy fun activities such as cutting, sticking, folding, and decorating while creating their own crafts to take home. The club supports fine motor skills, creativity, and confidence in a relaxed and playful environment.
Public Speaking & Debating Year 3-6
Debating Club helps pupils build confidence in speaking, listening, and expressing their ideas. Children learn how to form opinions, give reasons, and respectfully challenge different viewpoints through fun debates, discussions, and team activities. The club encourages critical thinking, teamwork, and strong communication skills in a supportive environment.
