During tomorrow’s Parents’ Evening Mrs Maund will be available in the library to demonstrate how maths is delivered at QPA. Handouts will be available to show how we set out our calculations in addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, as well as additional information about problem solving. Resources that are used with the children will also be available.

Winchester Science Centre
Year 5 had a wonderful trip to the Intech Science Centre yesterday, including a trip into the planetarium, as part of their ‘Stargazers’ topic.
Year 2 Open Evening
Many thanks to all of our Year 6 pupils for their marvellous tours of the school during our open evening last night. We are very proud of you!
Mighty Metal Music
Year 3 had a superb music workshop today, themed around their mighty metals topic. Many thanks to Mrs Murray for leading the session.
Maths displays
Our maths displays have been updated to reflect the ‘Maths No Problem’ scheme being followed within lessons. There is a lot of emphasis on accurate use of mathematical vocabulary and of reasoning skills within maths, for example being able to show answers in several different ways.
Year 2 Open Evening
Tomorrow night, Wednesday 18th October, from 6-7pm, our school will be open for any parents / carers of pupils currently in Year 2. There will be a brief talk about life at QPA followed by the opportunity to view classrooms and other facilities.
