We have found out that he created Alogrithms and introduced the western world to ‘0’. In honour of his work, we have been using algorithms in class! Not only have we been using algorithms in our Computing lessons this week to create our own space simulations but we have also created our own algorithms to make a jam sandwich. We then swapped our alogrithms with a partner and followed them to create our yummy jam sandwiches! ### Year 5 Islamic Golden Age History [![](https://files.schudio.com/kenningtonprimaryschool/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/17773/2DDFD356-B7F3-4E92-8AD4-BADF749DBD0E.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/kenningtonprimaryschool/images/gallery/17773/2DDFD356-B7F3-4E92-8AD4-BADF749DBD0E.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/kenningtonprimaryschool/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/17773/2AF74E97-4645-4212-84CE-AA76471A1B75.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/kenningtonprimaryschool/images/gallery/17773/2AF74E97-4645-4212-84CE-AA76471A1B75.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/kenningtonprimaryschool/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/17773/259DCAE0-4473-44C4-8ED3-F3E02AAB6A88.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/kenningtonprimaryschool/images/gallery/17773/259DCAE0-4473-44C4-8ED3-F3E02AAB6A88.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/kenningtonprimaryschool/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/17773/93F56520-4045-428D-BF0A-5506826ABD09.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/kenningtonprimaryschool/images/gallery/17773/93F56520-4045-428D-BF0A-5506826ABD09.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/kenningtonprimaryschool/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/17773/BFF33FB3-39F0-4C0D-8729-D3D4F5871607.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/kenningtonprimaryschool/images/gallery/17773/BFF33FB3-39F0-4C0D-8729-D3D4F5871607.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/kenningtonprimaryschool/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/17773/5640F041-59EA-4C30-970F-5E98AD8A2437.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/kenningtonprimaryschool/images/gallery/17773/5640F041-59EA-4C30-970F-5E98AD8A2437.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/kenningtonprimaryschool/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/17773/6AC7C2D5-BEFF-431C-8545-BCEC901A7A03.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/kenningtonprimaryschool/images/gallery/17773/6AC7C2D5-BEFF-431C-8545-BCEC901A7A03.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/kenningtonprimaryschool/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/17773/BE000D0A-A608-4ADC-B907-211F7FE5F2EC.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/kenningtonprimaryschool/images/gallery/17773/BE000D0A-A608-4ADC-B907-211F7FE5F2EC.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/kenningtonprimaryschool/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/17773/74E57821-C8C9-4726-81A0-EEB93CBF7168.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/kenningtonprimaryschool/images/gallery/17773/74E57821-C8C9-4726-81A0-EEB93CBF7168.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/kenningtonprimaryschool/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/17773/EA36378C-8C87-48BA-A7C4-76850BBA44B1.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/kenningtonprimaryschool/images/gallery/17773/EA36378C-8C87-48BA-A7C4-76850BBA44B1.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/kenningtonprimaryschool/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/17773/5220E423-5907-4B71-A8A5-25588C06371D.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/kenningtonprimaryschool/images/gallery/17773/5220E423-5907-4B71-A8A5-25588C06371D.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/kenningtonprimaryschool/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/17773/1CCAF9B2-8955-4946-BCB8-9D1A8391A85A.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/kenningtonprimaryschool/images/gallery/17773/1CCAF9B2-8955-4946-BCB8-9D1A8391A85A.jpeg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/kenningtonprimaryschool/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/17773/9DFADDA0-AC9B-4044-BB53-83AE0B82F746.jpeg)](https://files.schudio.com/kenningtonprimaryschool/images/gallery/17773/9DFADDA0-AC9B-4044-BB53-83AE0B82F746.jpeg) [Year 5](https://kennington.lancs.sch.uk/news/tag/year-5) [ Explore Learning Visit Cherry Class](https://kennington.lancs.sch.uk/news/2018-03-09-explore-learning-visit-cherry-class) [Fun Run 2018 ](https://kennington.lancs.sch.uk/news/2018-03-22-fun-run-2018) ### Photo Galleries - [Bookings](https://kennington.lancs.sch.uk/events) ### Kennington Primary School Kennington Road, Fulwood, Preston PR2 8ER ### Contact [01772 774044](tel:01772774044) - [TT-Rockstar](https://ttrockstars.com/) - [ParentPay](https://kennington.lancs.sch.uk/parents/supporting-children-at-home/Parent-Portal-Guidance) - [Buy School Uniform](https://kennington.lancs.sch.uk/parents/uniform) - [Multiplication Check](https://kennington.lancs.sch.uk/parents/year-4-multiplication-check-for-parents) - [Accelerated Reader ](https://global-zone61.renaissance-go.com/educatorportal/home) - - - - © Copyright 2026 Kennington Primary School ![Kennington Primary School Logo](https://files.schudio.com/kenningtonprimaryschool-2/images/logo/logo-footer.png) School & Trust Websites by ![Schudio Logo](https://kenningtonprimaryschool-2.schudio.com/img/logo/light.png)
