Maths Cafe and telling the time


The Tigers and the Rising 5s enjoyed more number fun this week during the maths cafe on Tuesday morning. After listening to the story of Spinderella we were set different challenges to work out how many football boots were needed for teams of different animals. We made excellent use of various resources to help us solve the problems including counters, cubes and dienes. 

On Wednesday the Tigers were learning all about telling the time. We learnt about how many minutes are in an hour and how many hours are in a day. The children made their own clocks with moving hands, which needed super scissor control, and also rolled play dough to make hands for the laminated clock faces.

Christmas Craft Cafe

On Friday 30th November 2018 we held a Christmas Craft cafe where families were invited to join us to make crafts to be sold at the Christmas fair. The Tigers and Cubs made bauble sun catchers, stockings, bead wreaths and Christmas tree decorations.  We all worked really hard and made lots of money for our fantastic school.

Malawi Federation Day

We were joined by our friends from Sutton and Hickling on Tuesday for a Federation Day. We learnt all about life in Malawi, including stories, art and craft. We had a really enjoyable day and the sun shone. We were even lucky enough to share a picnic lunch as a Federation.
