Captain Buttons says thanks!

We got another video message from Captain Buttons, this time saying thanks for all our help. He said that he had sent us all a present, but we had to go on a treasure hunt to find it! We had clues to help us. As a group, we tried to work out the clues and then we set off to find the treasure!

Thank you for the chocolate coins Captain Buttons!

Coordinates for Captain Buttons!

Captain Buttons got in touch again, this time via Skype!  He needed us to write coordinates so that he could steer his ship safely to Bounty Island.  We helped him by plotting his route.

We even made our own grid and guided each other safely!






When we looked at the map, we realised that Captain Buttons would have to avoid sea monsters, whirlpools, storms and of course pirates!  So we had a think about how we could design a ship to deal with all these problems.

 Then we made some models of our designs.

We've got a new kitchen!

Our house now has a fully equipped kitchen!  Perfect for making lunch for Mr Grindley the lighthouse keeper!
