PUPILS at a Winnersh primary school rocked out for charity earlier this month.
Wheatfield Primary raised money for the NSPCC with a Times Tables Rock Star Challenge on Friday, February 4.
Years 3 to 6 use Times Tables Rock stars for their maths homework — a programme of daily times tables practice.
As part of this, children are set challenges with other pupils, classes and schools. And each week, the winners of the league are celebrated.
Head of school, Tamara Brown, said that on the day, all of the children and staff dressed up as Rock Stars and took part in the UK competition.
“We came 514 out of 2475 schools, which we thought was super, as we are only a one form entry school,” she said. “Most of all we just had a lot of fun and even our younger children came dressed up too.”
The pupils raised £100 for the NSPCC.
