Year 5/6 Jungle Book Production
All of the Year 5/6 children showed off their amazing acting, dancing and singing skills in our end of year production.
We were so proud of you all. Well done on an amazing performance.
Year 6 visit Crucial Crewe
The children had great fun and we would once again like to say a huge thank you to all the services that supported this fabulous event.
Year 6 learnt some crucial lesson at Crucial Crewe
They mixed with other schools to learn about all sorts of vital lessons for the future.
Crucial Crew provides today’s children with an opportunity to acquire essential life skills at an impressionable time in their development. At Crucial Crew, children learn of the dangers of drugs, internet abuse and bullying, stranger danger, the effects of hoax calls etc. For many organisations, it is a rare and most cost-effective opportunity to raise awareness of the many dangers of the sea, water, electricity, railways, poor hygiene, smoking, building sites, internet, dog awareness, alcohol abuse and farm situations. As a result of attending, they are more confident in themselves and in a better position to make a positive contribution to their communities as they mature into junior citizens. The children also take this information back to their families, and members of their communities who may not have been privileged to receive this training.

Maths
For our math session- we are going to continue with our decimal work
In this small step, children will extend their knowledge of subtraction decimal numbers to include numbers with a different number of decimal places. It is important that children continue to practice lining up the decimal point carefully and ensure that each digit is in the correct column. A place value chart could be used to reinforce this. In the
column method, show children how to “fill” empty columns with zeros, which will support them when exchanges are required. They need to be secure with the fact that, for example, 6 and 6.0 have the same numerical value, as do 4.7 and 4.70 and so on

Start of the morning activity
Maths
For our maths session- we are going to continue with our statistics work.
In this small step, children are introduced to pie charts for the
first time. Discuss with children why a pie chart is a useful way to
represent data. They should realise that a pie chart quickly and
easily shows information as part of the whole. Discuss the fact that
bar charts may show the numbers of most/least popular items
quickly, whereas pie charts show something as more/less than a
half/quarter etc. of the total.
Children first look at simple pie charts to identify the greatest/
least amounts. They then move on to using the total number
represented by a pie chart to work out what each equal part is
worth. Finally, given the value of one part, children work out the
total and/or the values of other parts of the pie chart.
