If you're a First Coding student and are a member of the Scouts, then we can help you achieve your Digital Maker badge! This is mine from years ago, quite a bit has changed since then and I've always wondered what computer featured on the badge. I'm thinking it's a Commodore Pet.

A Year 5 pupil has built this app in #Scratch and has been packaged up to run on Android devices. When you place a car on the phone's screen, you start the app and the animation runs. It's designed to give the appearance the toy car is driving along the road at varying speeds.
