I would like to extend a warm welcome to Mrs Sunitha Tokala, who has joined the team whilst Mrs Tempest has gone on Maternity Leave.  I hope that everyone has made her feel welcome.

On 14 March, the Mathematics team celebrated international Pi Day. Once again, the team modelled their new shirts for 2025.  Pi is an irrational number that is pivotal in Mathematics as it is used when dealing with all things circular. Did you know that the record for reciting the greatest number of decimal places of Pi was achieved by Rajveer Meena in 2015?  He was able to recite 70,000 decimal places!

It was nice to be able to celebrate this special day in a small way and we hope that everyone enjoyed exploring pi.  I have attached photographs showing highlights from some of the class activities. 

By now, all students will have completed at least one assessment.  Please check Connect to see how your child is progressing.  Don’t forget that students have access to Mathspace, where they can work on any content that has been covered in class.
