Celebrating excellent attendance
Our autumn term trip was to see the pantomime Cinderella at The Lyceum theatre in Sheffield. We were lucky enough to have backstage tours of both The Crucible and the Lyceum as well as taking part in a drama workshop and getting to see lots of behind the scenes. Finally, after eating our lunches we climbed up to our seats in the balcony to watch the show!

Cross-Curricular Maths
This morning we worked in pairs to price up flights between two European cities. Next we worked out how much change we would get from a £10,000 lottery win and which flights we’d be able afford. We challenged ourselves by calculating whether we could afford to go on two or even more flights. We practiced using column addition and subtraction.
