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!
