Maths Mania Strikes
Published 07/08/18
A day dedicated to Maths. The children took part in lots of fun activities all based around Maths. This includes Maths through Science where children took part in a Vitamin C extraction experiment via the titraction technique. They also learned about water stratification by using the candy sweets skittles. The children had to count out different coloured skittles, measure out the water and add the water to the skittles. They then watched as the colours separated individually and produced a rainbow effect. The water stratification element is all about how water has different masses with different properties and this created the barriers that the children could see as the colours of the skittles started to run. It also produced a lovely colour run art work design.
The pupils had a visit from Sciencedipity, a story teller that incorporated Maths into her stories. In reception this was done by using prime numbers and getting the children to count throughout the story. In the older groups children had to work out sums to continue the story.
The children all had a really great time and were dressed up in a number of different costumes all related to people who use Maths in their jobs, these included scientists, teachers, builders and nurses.

Published 06/08/18On Wednesday 23rd January 2019, 20 very excited choir members made their way to the Genting Arena in Birmingham, to take part in the Young Voices Concert. Songs had been rehearsed over the last 4 months, with dynamic dance moves thrown into the mix, choreographed by Andy of Urban Strides, and the choir were ready to go!
And what an evening it was! Our voices joined with over 6,600 other school children, singing songs from Moana and the Greatest Show, along with many others, and there was even a recorded message from Hugh Jackman, sending inspiring words and good wishes to all the participants. Celebrities included Tony Hadley, Beau Dermott and Sharlene Hector and the Urban Strides dance crew, which got all the children on their feet dancing, along with the audience of 8000!
A truly amazing evening, which will be a lifelong memory for all those who took part! The children behaved impeccably and were a credit to the school and to their parents! Well done everyone and let's "KEEP SINGING!"
