Code Club Invitation

Three of our children recently were invited to the Library to meet with MSP Shirley-Anne Somerville as part of the Code Club initiative run by Orkney Library which encouraged children to get into computing. They had a chance to speak with the MSP and were excellent ambassabors for Papdale School.
