This week it has been Maths week and the children in Year 2 have been exploring money. We received a very special request from Major Tim Peake who wanted to throw a party for all of his friends on the ISS. Unfortunately he is still in space so unable to buy all of the items he needs. He asked if Year 2 could help him plan and pay for the party! We were happy to accept our mission and set about learning all we could about money!

We have been learning about the value of different coins and combining them to make different amounts. We also had a fantastic parent workshop where we got to show off our maths skills, add together amounts and pay for them in our classroom shop. Thank you to all the parents who came and supported their children.
