Primary Innovation and IT Leaders

We love being a part of the Innovation Team for 2024!

We have been brainstorming ideas for fun clubs, and will start some new ones soon! We have recorded a preview episode of our Emanuel School Primary Podcast and it will be coming out soon. We can’t wait to start recording the first complete episode. We have been working with Morah Gaidah. We also have the 3D-printing club in the new Imaginarium, and it has become very popular, especially with the printers displaying what they’re creating to the hallway. The new Imaginarium offers new experiences for all students and we have really enjoyed working in it so far. We are really excited to do even more next term. 

Filming and recording has been a big factor in the IT Leaders schedule. We have been filming a short film about Purim with Morah Gaidah and also created, and are going to create more of the Pesach song videos!

Next term, eSports Club will continue. This is a super fun club which allows students to play Rocket League, Mario Kart, Minecraft and VR games such as Beat Saber. This is a great way to explore how to game safely in a friendly environment. On Wednesdays, we offer LEGO robotics where students are competing in the Robo Cup. This is where students build and code a robot to either complete a dance performance or follow a line and save a city.

This year we have continued last year’s Vex IQ Robotics club. On Thursdays we build robots to compete against each other and do complex tasks, with and without drivers. And we are hoping to compete in local competitions against other schools later in the year too.

The IT Leaders are very excited for the year to come, hopefully we will see the whole school interact with the Imaginarium.

Come along one day and see what the Imaginarium is all about!
