Crew Nightingale (Yr 9) engaging with challenges in mathematical problem solving.
After a refreshing long weekend due to staff training days, students returned to their maths classes ready to tackle new learning targets. In one class, students master the art of expressing numbers as powers of ten. Meanwhile, the other class are learning spatial reasoning skills by calculating the volume of square pyramids.
Year 11 – Learn2Earn Scheme!
From today, Y11’s Learn 2 Earn rewards scheme is back!
Students have the opportunity to collect stamps on ‘loyalty cards’ for outstanding contributions in Learning labs and at D6 – this year, staff are able to award stamps to class superstars – if students are going above and beyond to contribute in sessions/work hard, staff will award extra stamps!
When their cards are complete (after 10 sessions), students need to hand them back in; there’ll be a half termly draw for a gift card for those attending the most sessions!
Please encourage students to get these filled in to claim those prizes (take a look at a small selection below!) 🙂
