England Rocks 🎸


Dear parent/carer,

As part of our commitment to make maths exciting and high profile in our school, we are taking part in a friendly competition involving schools in England. The competition runs from 07:30 Tuesday 14th November 2023 to 19:30 Thursday 16th November 2023. It’s all done online on TTRS.

Children can play in any gamemode with every correct answer to a multiplication or division question, earning themselves, their class and the school a point. The Times Tables Rock Stars platform will calculate the class average (the number of correct answers per pupil in the class who play during the competition hours, subject to a daily 60-minute limit (see below)). Winning classes in the school and in the competition as a whole will be the ones with the highest average.

To support player wellbeing, there is a daily time limit of 60-minutes per player. In other words, each player can earn competition points for up to 60-minutes between 07:30 Tuesday 14th November 2023 to 19:30 Thursday 16th November 2023. Once the player goes beyond 60-minutes of play on that day, they will still earn coins but will no longer earn points towards the competition.

In the spirit of the competition, please don’t play on their behalf but by all means encourage and support them to the extent that it doesn’t cause high stress levels or impact on family plans.

4OP Remembrance

Children in 4OP have tied ribbons on to the railings by the playground to remember the soldiers that fought in WW1.  In English this week we have read the story ‘Flo of the Somme’ and today, 4OP have enjoyed learning about the symbolism of red, white, purple and black poppies.

4M Travel Workshop

4M had a great morning with a Be Bright Be Seen workshop! The children looked at how to stay safe with the darker evenings and mornings.

They conducted an Science experiment to test which fluorescent colour would be the best to wear! After the investigation, the children concluded that fluorescent yellow was the best. After such a great workshop, the children have all been given a pair of bright gloves to wear during the darker season.
