Our very own ‘Number hero!’

Earlier this year, National Numeracy Ambassador Bobby Seagull invited children across the UK to show them all the different ways they will use numbers when they grow up. The organisers saw everything from scientists to sunbathers, deep-sea divers to dentists, and even a trampolinist or two!

There were six categories with prize bundles of maths resources worth over £1,000 for each winner’s school.

You may be wondering what that has to do with Bicton…

Well, we are over the moon to announce that Isaac T from Birch class not only entered (in his own time)…he was one of the 6 winners!

Click here to see Isaac’s brilliant entry. Well done Isaac – we are so proud of you and very excited to be receiving such amazing prizes for our school!

Once the prizes arrive, we will make sure that Isaac has his photograph taken with everything. 🙂

Plant detectives

Birch class really showed off their super knowledge about plants, when they went on a plant hunt around the school grounds this week. They had to look closely, as some of the plants looked very similar at first and a few were tricky to find, but they now know their ceanothus from their rosemary and their camellia buds from apple blossom!

They described and compared different plants and came up with different questions about plants which they want to find out about this term. Next week we are going to plant some of our Superbloom seeds. If you have any bedding plants or perennials spare over the coming weeks, we would love to take them off your hands!
