Year 6 Win Maths Challenge!

Posted by On Filed under Year 3, Year 4, Year 5, Year 6

On Tuesday 9th October, four marvellous mathematicians took part in a Maths Challenge at Deans Close School, Cheltenham.

Our Year 6 mathematicians were challenged with three rounds of tricky maths questions, including solving worded problems, countdown and even algebra! However, the problems didn’t phase our Year 6s and one of our teams landed the top spot to win the Cheltenham Year 6 Maths Challenge.

We are proud of all our Year 6s for representing the school so well and also for demonstrating their excellent mathematical knowledge.

Congratulations to Ollie and Amy and also to Ollie and Eva!

World Book Day 2018

Well, what a great day we had for World Book Day!

It all started with Burglar Bill sharing a story with us – it was his favourite one!

Then we got to see all of the amazing outfits that the children (and teachers) got dressed up in.

We had characters from Roald Dahl.

 

We had characters from David Walliams.

 

We had characters from Fairy Tales.

 

We had characters from Harry Potter.

 

We had characters from Dr Seuss.

 

We had many Where’s Wallys’ but we couldn’t find them anywhere!!!

 

We had Superheroes.

 

and we had many other amazing outfits.

 

Next, the children went back to class to carry out many exciting activities all to do with books, books and more books! Before rushing off at 2 o’clock to beat the snow.

The children were fantastic all day. Thank you to everyone for helping us out and sorting out the children’s costumes!

Daily Maths Problems

During March, the White Rose Maths Team will be publishing a daily Maths problem to encourage mathematical thinking and develop problem solving and reasoning across a broad spectrum of mathematical concepts covered at Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2.

Each day, a new challenge will be posted for all children to attempt to solve. We would love it if you and your children could work through the relevant age related problems to help develop reasoning and problem solving skills!

Good Luck!
