On Friday morning, year 5 were lucky enough to have a special guest come in and talk to the children all about the importance of maths and how it will be useful to them in the future. 

A lady from HMRC was talking to children all about her job and the importance of taxes, who pays taxes and what the money is used for. She went over the importance of percentages.

They learnt a lot about maths in the workplace and many children were able to tell us how their parents use maths in their jobs.
