Thank you and well done :)

Hey guys, I just wanted to say a big well done to all those who came to the bag pack today.  You worked unbelievebly hard and were an absolute credit to the school.  I just thought you might like to know that we raised £485.50 which is a phenominal ammout of money.  Needless to say WE ARE GOING TO SNOWDON :)  .  Really well done and a big thank you to Catharine at ASDA for letting us do it. 

 You all deserve a nice rest now.

Enjoy your weekend and I’ll see you on Monday.

Mr B.

P.S.

I have sorted the bag pack at ASDA for the 2nd July :)   We just need to decide when you want to go away now :)

Maths Homework.

Here’s some fractions problems for you.  Remember all we have done on fractions.  Bottom number (denominator) tell you how many pieces you need to break something into.  Top number (numerator) tells you how many pieces you need to keep – divide by the bottom, times by the top!  When ordering fractions remember to find the LCD (Lowest Common Denominator) remember- whatever you do to the bottom number you need to do to the top :)

Hey Guys – Why do we explore?

Hey guys, how are your holidays going?  Sorry I havent been on here I’ve been up to my neck in bushes and soil sorting my garden.  I am still nowhere near done and back to it tomorrow. 

 I thought I’d get on and give you some stuff to have a look at about our topic next term - Exploration. Here are some links to have a look at, see if any of the explorers take your fancy and let me know.  Try to find some of your own too.  It would be good if we could find out about modern explorers/adventurers too.  People like Ellen Mcarthur, Leo Holding etc.  See what you can find out and let me know who and or what you would like to learn about. Enjoy the rest of your hols, they’ll be over soon enough.

Mr B :)
