Year 8

Bebras Challenge

Organised by the Raspberry Pi Foundation, the Bebras Challenge encourages pupils to develop their computational thinking through a number of coding challenges in a given time. By breaking down problems using decomposition and abstraction, pupils deepen their understanding and learn to devise innovative solutions. These essential skills are not only vital for the Bebras Challenge but also support many areas of the computing curriculum, including coding.⁠

This year, Year 6 were entered into the Challenge. However Divit in Year 8 also chose to take on the Intermediate Challenge and secured a Gold as well!⁠ Well done Divit. Peter Meier
