At St Helen's we provide children with opportunities to put their knowledge to the test in our fun maths events and trips. All trips aim to teach children how to solve real world mathematical problems while also improving their fluency.
In Early Years children are able to go on trips to bakeries and supermarkets. While at the shops children count how many fruits and vegetables to buy and at the end the best part is going back to school to eat all their yummy food !
In Key Stage 1, children have an opportunity to go on a trip to West Ham Park. Children in Year 2 learnt about measurement and were able to apply all their skills at the park.
The whole school takes part in TT Rockstar's and robot day! All children can dress up as their favourite rock star or robot and come into school. Key stage 2 classes challenge each other by playing times tables games to see which class is best!
Key stage 1 children learn maths fluency on the Numbots website and hold competitions also! At the end of the day the whole school takes part in a rockathon.

Pupils were invited to go on a maths trip to Downsell primary school. They had the opportunity to meet Steve Rogers a mathematician who taught the children how to solve tricky mathematical problems, such as sudoku. The children developed their mathematical fluency skills during the trip and found it very rewarding.
