All of the pupils at John Perryn are going on a Maths journey around the world.

For some of them, today was the time to stamp their passport and gain a new certificate to their collection. Well done to everyone!

What are maths passports?

Maths Passports are used to improve children’s mental maths skills.

Each child will be given a passport with a series of targets. These targets get progressively more challenging as the passports track progression in basic number skills. The children will develop instant recall skills in all the objectives – they should not be taking time to work out the answer to each question, they need to know it instantly.

The students at John Perryn began the day with a special ‘police briefing’ in assembly. Alanna (EE) explained that a criminal, known as ‘The Sugar Snatcher’ had struck again! Students took on the role of new police recruits, working with the Police’s Forensic Unit to collect and analyse evidence from the ‘crime scene’. The teams of detectives had to work carefully together so as to not miss any important clues…

Violinists performed to parents and the rest of the school today. What a talent!

After an early start our WE Day ambassadors have arrived at Wembley.

We all dressed up as our favourite characters to celebrate World Book Day 2016. What a fantastic time we had! We thought that we’d share some of our memories with you. Can you guess who our favourite characters were?
