Maths frog investigation

 

Year 5 have recently been undertaking lots of maths investigations. This one involves two families of frogs who wish to swap sides to the other side of the pond.

• There are 7 lily pads which the frogs must use to cross the pond.
• Frogs can only jump to empty lily pads.
• Frogs can only jump over one other frog at a time.
• Frogs don't know how to jump backwards!

Many of the children were able to find the answer to the investigation. However it became a lot harder to record how they achieved it and demonstrate their answer to someone else. 

Visit to the local mosque

Today the Reception Class, Year 6 & Year 3 visited the local mosque.

Water Walk

Well done to everyone who undertook the water walk for charity. The water walk was part of our Year of Jubilee and another event to mark the centenary of St Joseph's Church.

The children walked laps carrying a bottle of water. To mark the church's centenary and to set a challenge, the children were aiming for 100 laps (as a class or group) of the field or playground.

All the money raised goes to our school charity the Emmaus (Clifton Diocese Schools) project. This event also brings an end to our charity work for this project. Please if possible make a donation to this charity event by handing in a donation with your child or there is an option to make a donation by School Gateway. If you select 'payments' from the account and then from the payments list choose: 'St Joseph's Uganda Charity'. 

For more information on the charity see our school website https://www.st-josephs-pri.bristol.sch.uk/Clifton-Diocese-Schools-Project/
