Computer Science is a subject which, in comparison to most, is still an infant. The impact it has made on our lives though is extraordinary! Annie is an inspiration.

Code Club begins today, albeit on a virtual platform. How apt! Scratch, Python, and HTML/CSS activities to be uploaded each Tuesday. LP@Home includes info on how to join in @LPSchool

A fun day of coding with Microbits at the TeenTech City event. A great way to incorporate Art and physical computing. Great results in such a short time. Thanks @microsofteduk @microbit_edu #coding #Computing #STEAM @lpschool

[Leighton Park CS @LeightonParkCS]

Wonderful to see the hard work and preparation pay of as the @LPSchool TeenTech group pitch their future city buildings and explain how they have designed them to be environmentally friendly, fun and functional. Great work! @teentechevent #TeenTechCity #STEAM #STEM
