World Cup Songs

Following the success of our Space songs Cabaret, lets hold another one.  We will hold one every other week.  The theme for the next sing-off will be the world cup.  We will vote for an official song for the duration of the world cup!!!!  Get composing - remember it helps if it sung to  a familiar tune.

A Message From Mr Logue!!!!!

Hello Year 5,
Remember me? I have to say that I am very disappointed !!!! I've just been on to the Mathletics website and have been told by the people that run it that no certificates have been won this week or last week !!!!!! What's going on? I've been away for 1 month and you let the mathletics slip. Tut tut.

If you've forgotten your password just let Mrs Logue know and she'll sort it out. I'm sure that the real reason is that Mrs Logue is giving you LOADS of really HARD work to do.

Anyway I'm going now, but I'll be checking back to make sure that Mathletics hasn't been forgotten. Don't forget that I also get DAILY updates as to what you are up to (Good and Bad!!!!)

See you all soon,
Mr Logue :-p

BTW you can look at my new schools website - I've only just started to set it up and it still needs a lot of work doing to it, but do check it out, leave a message and tell me what you think!!!! Just click the link below:
