Last week at SS Peter and Paul, we celebrated National School Sports Week! We hosted all of our sports days, had commonwealth workshops, our key stage 1 children visited the Community School Games at Aldersley and incorporated sport into our curriculum in other ways. Look at this video below as an example!
The Guinness World Records official attempt number roll
The charity National Numeracy and Times Tables Rock Stars have teamed up for a Rocking and Rolling Numbers live event, to get children across the UK feeling positive and confident about maths.
Number rolling is a catchy call-and-response chant with accompanying actions that help kids feel good about numbers.
At 9.30am today, our children joined the live stream and were part of this brilliant event, and amazingly, they did set a NEW GUINESS WORLD RECORD!!!
Congratulations to Year 4 who won the Times Table Rockstars Battle last week! Here are the final results:
It is really good to see Year 4 working so hard on these with their multiplication check later in the year!
Our top performers were:
Mohamad – Y4
Media – Y3
Victor – Y5
Well done everyone! Certificates and gifts will be given out today!
Some of our Year 5 mathematicians were chosen to represent the school in a Wolverhampton Maths Challenge held at Girls High School!
They worked in pairs to solve 6 different challenges to try and gain as many points as possible! Our teams finished 12th and 27th respectively out of 38 teams! Well done children!
