Bring a Significant Male To School 2024

A huge thank you to all the adults who joined us for Bring a Significant Male to School Day! The children were excited to share their learning and new spaces!

Year 1 loved teaching their adults about how our bodies work, labeling body parts and recording their functions. Year 4 had a fun numeracy morning, starting with a times table game before diving into Mathopoly, where they used their addition and subtraction skills to earn points.
