As a brand new Academy, Purple Oaks opened in Kingsthorpe, Northampton, sponsored by the Greenwood Academies Trust (GAT). A major capital building programme costing £5m was secured to provide a state of the art building and facilities for students and staff. The new building was completed in December 2017 and the academy moved in on the 3rd January 2018.
Sycamore class have been looking at money values up to 50p. They used 1p, 2p, 5p, 10p, 20p and 50p to then work out how much they could spend on items and then how much change they would receive. Sycamore have really enjoyed this task and developing their money skills! https://t.co/VjnkplB9O4
