Burns-Martin Trophy

Room 8 with the "Burns-Martin Trophy."

This week also saw the Burns-Martin Trophy up for grabs. In the fifth contest of the year Room 4 was on abit of a hot streak winning the past two contests in a row. This time around the classes were split into two and in Room 4 with Mr. Martin was a maths quiz and in Room 8 with Mr. Burns was a music quiz.

There was a bit of a concern about the questions that Mr. Burns was going to pick for the music quiz but Mr. Burns assured both classes that he is up with all the cool music at the moment.

After a tough battle and the phone call between teachers being made at 1:50 pm the sound in both rooms was very quiet. Mr. Martin told Mr. Burns that Room 8 had won the maths quiz by a very close margin of one point. Mr. Burns told Mr. Martin that Room 8 had won the music quiz by a large margin so Room 8 had won back the Burns-Martin Trophy!

When those who had taken part in the Room 4 maths quiz came back with the trophy the class had a picture taken and sung "We are the Champions" before we went to assembly.

Another great afternoon had by both classes which is always very pleasing to see from a teachers perspective.
