Last week was our annual Maths Week. Secondary students engaged in several competitive interhouse mathematical activities both inside and outside of lessons.
We tested our spatial reasoning with “skyscraper” problems, competed against one another in a mix of traditional strategy games from around the world, tested our problem-solving skills and even got some physical exercise in a “maths relay” event in the sports hall.
Congratulations to all who took part. After a close fought week of competition, the ultimate winning house was Endeavour. Well done to all in Endeavour House.
