Our School in the Community

Junior Music Festival 2019

Our choir children were a credit to the school on

Monday evening’s SEESMA Junior Music Festival.

Thousands of children have participated across the

week at the Cliffs Pavilion performing

show-stopping numbers from movies, musicals and

the pop charts (both old and new). A huge thanks to

all the parents who turned out to support us on the

evening. Music really is magic!

8 x Times Tables Tip!

Have a look at these timesavers.

The numbers in the 8 × table are always even. This means they can be divided by 2 without remainder. If it’s an odd number then it is not

in the 8 × table!

Have a look at the 8 × table again. The unit digits have a regular pattern - they go down in

2s.

1 x 8 = 8 2 x 8 = 16 3 x 8 = 24 4 x 8 = 32 5 x 8 = 40 6 x 8 = 48 7 x 8 = 56 8 x 8 = 64 9 x 8 = 72

Major General Calculate is about to

inspect the troops, but it’s not their

uniform he’s interested in, it’s their

knowledge of maths! Together the

soldiers show what they’ve learnt,

including number bonds, times tables,

fractions, measuring and shapes. This

fun-filled assembly really showcased

our children's enjoyment of all things

maths!
