Strumbie Island
One of the first programmes Ronnie
wrote for children was Strumbie Island. The ten week programme helps
children to recognise different emotions and develop social skills.
Together with lesson plans, interactive games, and extra work sheets
and ideas for assemblies, the programme was bought by Granada Leaning
and is available through SEMERC.
The programme their best seller at 2007 BETTS show and was nominated for 2008 BETTS awards for best special educational needs software. Companion Media use Strumbie Island in a number of primary schools across the North East of England.
Melody Castle
This is our first interactive programme for primary schools. Aimed at KS2 the programme supports SEAL (Social, Emotional Aspects of Leaning) and the music curriculum. Through seven brightly animated stories children follow Stave, the ghost of a young knave as he tried to save the castle from the evil Baron Bumnote. Children are able to write and record their own song to add to the programme and they can even appear ‘magically’ in the last chapter. The programme has a karaoke sing along section, lesson plans, and printable music and activity sheets.
