Many thanks for all your contributions for Number Day. And thank you so much for getting your children to school looking amazing!
From speaking with children and staff today, it sounds like we had a really great day. Here are some activities which were going on during the day: children in Yangtze class were manipulating some very large numbers to see if they could find different properties; children in Congo class were trying to work out combinations of ice cream flavours. They thought it was easy at first, finding combinations of flavours on double ice cream cones. It was, until I gave them five different flavours – and flake or no flake – to consider; children in Colorado played a version of the beetle drive; children in Danube class designed t-shirts with numbers and patterns on. Throughout the day, we also took part in a Times Tables Rock Stars NSPCC challenge. I don’t think we won the tournament, but we had a lot of fun. The children definitely agreed that it was a good day, and said they fancied another Number Day next year. Well done, all!
