 Launched on Monday, this unique and engaging cross curricular resource is based around an original story commissioned by LGfL  by the award-winning author Cath Howe. Space Adventures features a comprehensive set of resources for Maths, Literacy and Science and a whole self-contained Computing Unit created by max Wainwright, author of the popular Espresso Coding resource for primary schools.  The resource features dramatic video content alongside a virtual reality experience.

**LGfL and Google Neverware.**  
 Given current budgetary pressures and compliance demands, it's more important now than ever to find practical solutions that increase secure, cloud-centric access to computing in schools.  LGfL and Google are committed to helping schools transform old kit into new kit with CloudReady. CloudReady is an operating system built on the same foundation as Chromebooks, devices on CloudReady run like new, enabling schools to increase reliable device access without having to buy new kit.  Please fill out this [form](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfanfUxXJVTwTGHn2PWi7o2sFRMEHI0KJzPGnzK4AFRIXSBTg/viewform) if you are interested in converting old devices into CloudReady ones through LGfL and Neverware.
