Here are some of the brilliant vacation deals that were calculated by our Year 10 Maths students ✈️ Who knew a lesson in budgeting would get us excited for summer holidays? 🏖️ #FinancialCapability

As Summer draws nearer Year 10 Maths students enjoyed putting their mathematical skills to use by planning and budgeting holidays! ✈️ Students compared the value in economy and first class European vacations and each planned their own to stay within a given budget 🏕️🏨 Brilliant!

As today is @starwarsday Scientists in 10D were investigating THE FORCE - the force of friction that is. Students explored how friction is proportional to the surface. Brilliant work #MayThe4thBeWithYou

Happy @starwarsday from all here at SJBC. Students today enjoyed exploring the maths and numeracy behind forces #MayThe4thBeWithYou
