Year 4s Recreate Caine's Arcade

King’s Year 4 classrooms played host to an exciting Term 2 culminating event on Monday, 10 June which highlighted our students' learnings from the past term. Drawing inspiration from the renowned 'Caine's Arcade,' these young innovators had learned about Newton's three laws of motion and were tasked with applying their newfound knowledge to create their own cardboard arcade games. The journey of bringing their ideas to life was an adventure in itself and required planning, problem-solving and some very creative solutions. Armed with scissors, tape, and boundless imagination, our Year 4s meticulously made an interactive activity that incorporated the principles of physics and motion. Their efforts culminated in the grand unveiling of the 'Year 4 Arcade' which was filled with colourful displays, flying ping pong balls and the sounds of excitement as their younger peers visited the arcade to play the games. From marble mazes and pinball machines to basketball shootouts and claw crane challenges, each game embraced the spirit of Caine's Arcade and the special event was a resounding success, showcasing the innovative and imaginative potential of our young students.
