Cheque Number
Each cheque has its own number. The number of the cheque in the picture is 100026.

When the cheque is paid and the money leaves your bank account, this number will be shown on your bank statement.

If you looked at your bank statement and saw 'Cheque number 10026' you could look at your cheque book and see who you paid. The cheque number is written on the cheque and on your cheque book stub.

Other details on a cheque are the number of your bank account and the address of your bank.

Your name will be on each cheque. Can you find the name 'William' on the cheque in his cheque book in the picture?
