Thank you to all the parents, friends and relatives who came to support the Year 6 MacMillan Coffee morning. We are delighted to announce that it raised £117.04 towards this very good cause!
It was so good to see so many members of our school community enjoying a coffee and a piece of cake together. The morning also gave our pupils a chance to meaningfully apply their maths skills and develop their communication and self confidence.

We had to work in a team to make the cakes. First we were estimating the number of visitors and the portions we would need. Then our team had to decide on the roles: bakers, sellers, advertisers. On the day we had to communicate well with each other: cakes were running out, we needed to get change, helping people in the queue! It was really busy.

Maths
Mr Drakes tells us all the time that we need to be quick with our mental recall. Working out the change and handling the money was tough with so many guests. If you didn't calculate quickly and accurately the queue quickly began to grow.
