Maths Day
Today Dudley House School held a maths day. The day started with Class 4’s assembly, all about maths, where they showed us how we use maths everyday for different tasks, taught us easy ways to remember some of the times tables. They also shared a story of how 3 sons shared 17 camels between them. Following the assembly, Key Stage 2 held a times tables quiz.
After play, all the children, from reception to year 6, worked together to answer questions, at a series of stations around the hall.
The children took part in lots of maths activities during our maths day and had lots of fun whilst practising maths skills.
We are inspired by reading. Are you?
The whole school has worked together to create an inspirational reading display. We hope it will inspire others to develop a love of reading. Why not come in and see the fantastic work for yourself.

Art Day
To start the day, the children worked collaboratively to create a collage of the Union Flag using cuttings from magazines. Key stage 2 continued the British Values theme by creating clay tile reliefs depicting scenes representing the values and class 1 created pattern effects by stamping objects into their clay tiles. Once dried, all of these will be displayed in the hall. After lunch, the whole school began work on creating a 3D model of St Peter’s Hill consolidating their learning of the local area and developing their understanding of the local community.
