'More able' Maths Day...

On Wednesday 9th July we had a day of Maths along with 3 other schools:
Redbridge Primary
South Park
Ray Lodge


Mr Pete Hall who is a teacher with 35 years experience (Headteacher for 5 years) led the problem solving day with 33 children.


The day was filled with a variety of fun mathematical puzzles which gave the children the opportunity to apply what they know to solve problems.



There was lots of talk, team work and success. A Fantastic Maths Day!
