Congratulations to our Year 5/6 Maths Championship finalist team. The children completed a range of challenging logic, reasoning and number challenges whilst competing against other Dudley Schools. By aiming high, showing great teamwork and applying their fantastic maths knowledge, they finished 6th overall out of the 12 finalists. We are all so proud of how well they represented Lapal's values of perseverance, cooperation and excellence. 

One member of the team even won a special individual prize of 2 tickets to the SpongeBob Musical at Wolverhampton Grand, for his great estimating skills. 

The team also couldn't miss the opportunity to have our photo taken with Mayor of Dudley, Councillor Andrea Goddard, who presented the awards. 

In science, the children have been learning all about plants. We sorted and classified seeds. Then we looked at bulbs and talked about the difference between seeds and bulbs. We asked lots of questions and set up three investigations. We have planted sunflower seeds, freesia bulbs and radish seeds so that we can observe over time and answer our investigation questions. 

Well done, year two. Super scientists!

A beautiful day filled with lots of fantastic activities. The children have had a brilliant time and have been an absolute credit to our school.

Well done Team Lapal
