Times Tables Rock Stars Badges. We currently have 10 pupils in the school who can answer TTRS questions in under a second, 36 pupils under 2 seconds and 33 pupils under 3 seconds. To earn these badges, pupils have to work on their speed in the studio; the speed is taken from their last ten attempts. On Number Day (February 6th) we will be crowning a TTRS Champion of the School.

A great week of uploads on the Learning Pi app this week. We have picked some lovely examples of pupils being: imaginative and creative, curious, determined and resilient; and of having a sense of place and participating.

Just over two weeks to go until number day Friday 6th February. You can donate here: http://charity.giftt.tech/rendleshamcommunityprimaryschool Dress as a Rockstar or with any clothing with numbers on it.

U11s Sportshall Athletics: On Thursday 15th January a team of 23 year 6 children travelled to Suffolk One to take part in an indoor athletics event. The team competed against another 26 schools who took part across two sessions. We are awaiting the final results but regardless of these, are incredibly proud of the determination and resilience the team showed. Their constant roaring support and encouragement for each other was a joy to watch (and hear)! Both these recent events have been made all the more smarter with massive thanks to Clarke and Simpson Auctions, who very generously have sponsored our new multisport kit. The children have worn this kit purposefully during these events and have represented Rendlesham Primary School with pride. We cannot wait to put the kit to more use as the year goes on.

We have had some lovely examples of collaboration, determination, responsibility and participation uploaded over the last week on Learning Pi. Here are some of our favourites.

Year 3/4 Dodgeball: Throughout the second half of the Autumn term last year, a group of year 3 and 4 children participated in a dodgeball afterschool club. A team of 9 were then chosen to take part in the Suffolk School Games U9s dodgeball tournament at Ipswich School Sports Centre. Not only did the team show great throwing, catching and dodging skills, they also showed a great competitive spirit in every game. Overall, the team performed extremely well, managing to win 3 out of the 6 matches they played!
