Shared Education - Microsoft MakeCode Arcade

26th Feb 2026

Third and Fourth Class enjoyed a brilliant coding session today with Emma from Coding Ireland. The children explored Microsoft MakeCode Arcade, experimenting with blocks, sprites, and simple game design in a really hands‑on, creative way. We were also delighted to welcome our friends from Taunagh NS, who joined us as part of our Shared Education partnership. The room was full of collaboration, problem‑solving, and excitement as everyone tested their games, shared ideas, and learned new coding skills together.
